Dumfries and Galloway

Rich in history, dotted with castles and abbeys and strongly identified with Robert the Bruce, Robert Burns and many other historical characters, the county of Dumfries and Galloway is a mecca for cycling, golfing, bird spotting, fishing and, of course, walking. "Dumfries and Galloway: 40 Coast and Country Walks" provides a taste of every aspect of this large county and offer access to some of the less visited parts of this quiet and beautiful corner of the UK. Every effort has been made to make the walks accessible by public transport and all are intended to be suitable for families.
