Explore the beauty of the Lake District dales with this enchanting and absorbing guide.

Crisp and sharp, fascinating throughout, [this book] is an outstanding journey through the Lake District. - Bill Birkett, Author, Mountaineer and Photographer

The Lake District has over 100 dales, many of them tranquil enclaves far from the hectic comings and goings of daily Lakeland life. Yet beyond the main river arteries, most dales remain little-known; some see more sheep and deer than humans. Even locals would be hard pressed to pinpoint some with certainty.

Ticking your way through a list of Lake District summits is easy; they stick up and are easily accounted for. Less so the dales. Where, for example, is Blengdale, or Miterdale, seldom-visited Woundale, Fusedale, Moasdale and Pasture Bottom?

In Exploring Lake District Dales, Terry Marsh champions the cause of the dales. Diving into their geology, geography, history, culture, folklore and matters of curious and touristic interest, this book reveals the beauty and appeal of dales, great and small.

Among captivating text and stunning photography, Exploring Lake District Dales also provides you with essential visitor information such as transport links, the most inspiring visitor attractions and sights, unmissable restaurants and great places to stay, making this book the complete package for all Lake District admirers.
