What it is, and what it isn’t
- Built from the same checked records as this website, with the date each walk was last checked.
- Route maps and overviews, not turn-by-turn directions. Take a paper map.
- Safety guidance is included, and it’s also free on the site: you never need to buy a pack to walk safely.
- Things that change (parking charges, opening times, weather) point to the live pages by QR code.
- No business has paid to appear in the packs.
Questions
Isn’t all this free on the website?
The walk pages, parking and safety information are free, and always will be. The pack saves you the planning: the right walks chosen for you, organised into a plan, with printable cards, maps, GPX files and checklists in one download that works without signal.
Does it have turn-by-turn directions?
No. Each walk has a route map, an overview and the key facts. We only publish step-by-step directions once we’ve walked a route ourselves. Take a paper map and follow the paths and signs on the ground.
How do I get it?
Pay securely through our payment provider and you’ll get a download link straight away, on screen and by email. The download is a ZIP file with the PDF, a printable checklist and GPX files where the pack includes them.
What about refunds?
Because it’s a download, you agree at checkout that it starts straight away, which ends the usual 14-day cancellation period. If a file is faulty, won’t open or isn’t as described, email us and we’ll fix it or refund you.
Will it go out of date?
Anything that changes, like parking charges and opening times, isn’t printed as fact: the pack links to the live pages. When a route changes, we update the pack.
Can I use the GPX files on my phone?
Yes: 8 routes in this pack have a GPX file. Import them into your mapping app and download the offline map before you go.
