A guidebook describing 25 walks on Guernsey, Alderney, Sark and Herm, Channel Islands. Almost all the walks link directly with one or two other walks allowing all kinds of extensions to the routes. Good paths and tracks are used, along with quiet country roads. Occasionally rugged cliff paths are used to explore the beautiful coastline.
A walking guidebook to the islands of Guernsey, Alderney, Sark and Herm. 24 walks are described. A selection of walks which can be linked to form longer routes, including the Guernsey Coastal Walk and part of the Channel Islands Way. Famous for sunshine, history and a wonderful coastline, Guernsey is an intriguing destination for travellers. Outwardly British but with French overtones, the island has a long tourist season and is often busy with visitors. The walks in this guide use good paths and tracks as well as quiet country roads. Occasionally, more rugged paths are used to explore the excellent cliff coastline. Guernsey has plenty of interesting historical sites and attractions to visit including castles, churches and museums.

Paddy Dillon is a prolific walker and guide book writer who has over 40 books to his name. He has walked extensively around all the Channel Islands, delighting in hopping from island to island. By walking the coastlines several times, as well as walking deep inland, he has developed a great knowledge of all the islands have to offer.
