Mark Sutcliffe has chosen 15 of the best short walks around the Ribble Valley. Each walk comes with easy-to-read Ordnance Survey maps, clear route description and lots of images, plus information on beauty spots and refreshment stops. No challenging terrain or complicated navigation means walks can be enjoyed by everyone.
Seasons
Most of these walks can be safely completed all year round, but some are trickier in winter. We’d recommend late spring or early autumn as the best times to visit.Centres

All of the routes in this guidebook are under 11km in distance and are accessible to anyone with a reasonable level of fitness. Some of the hillier routes involve some steep climbs and descents, but all of the walks should take no longer than four hours of steady walking.Must See
