BESKRIVELSE:
You don't need to be ultra-fit or highly experienced in the outdoors to enjoy
outdoor guru Patrick Kinsella's selection of 30 activities across Britain. 'A
sense of adventure and an explorer's heartbeat' is all that's required, he says,
and he should know, having spent two decades walking, running, riding,
paddleboarding, swimming, canoeing, kayaking... and more besides, in all corners
of the country. Bradt's Caving, Canyoning, Coasteering... is both an atlas of
adventure and book of secrets, enticing readers out of their comfort zone to
explore the often-unseen elements and quieter corners of Britain, where the wild
experiences live. Some of the activities described take place on the very edges
of large urban centres, easily accessible for anyone, yet even many locals don't
know about them. Others happen in far-flung corners of the country - places
people may never have considered exploring. 'This title will take you on a
highly adventurous tour of Britain's extraordinary cliffs, caves, canyons,
coasts, forests, fells, beaches, Munros, moors and tors, via a range of outdoor
pursuits - many of which were conceived and pioneered on this island' says
Kinsella. 'It's all about wild time spent in wonderful places, from the
mysterious depths of the labyrinthine limestone underworld beneath the Mendip
Hills to the top of ice-clad aretes and snow-dusted peaks of monstrous Munros in
the Scottish Highlands, via seascapes and sub-aquatic environment in Devon and
Cornwall, tumbling streams and ghylls in the Lake District, and
cascade-concealed caverns in the waterfall-soaked world of the Bannau
Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) in Wales. It's not for the faint of heart, but
there are escapades here to excite everyone.' Whether you're an experienced
outdoor type or someone who's new to the outdoors but seeking guidance on where
to go and what to do, a wildlife and fresh-air enthusiast or an armchair
traveller, a lone adventurer or family with young children, Caving, Canyoning,
Coast
