These 20 circular routes, varying in length from 2 to 7 miles, have all been recommended by local experts, then tried and tested by even-more-expert local dogs.
Routes are designed to maximise off-lead time and dog safety, while taking in some of the area's top landmarks and favourite destinations.
There are woodland walks at Bourton Combe and Lower Woods; stretches of coastal path at Clevedon and Littleton-upon-Severn; riverside paths at Chew Magna and Snuff Mills; and wide open spaces at Hawkesbury Upton and Blackdown on the Mendip Hills.
With landscape that includes limestone upland and river estuary, parkland and wooded valleys, there is something here for every dog and its owner.
Inside you'll find clear, numbered route instructions, and each section also includes a matching numbered map, information on how to get to the start, and places of interest along the way.
Plus, all walks include details of:
*Livestock and stiles
*Distance and terrain
*Recommended dog-friendly refreshment stops
*Contact details for the nearest vets
*Where to park
