Walking in the Forest of Dean {ISBN: 978 1 85284 689 3]

The Forest of Dean is truly a land apart, with distinctive landscape and unique cultural identity. Encircling ridges and forested slopes give the central Forest a secretive quality, while the ridges above the Wye gorge and the Severn Vale are more outward looking, with sensational views and easy walking.
