New on the market is a series of DVD guides covering some
of the major UK National Trails - Hadrian's Wall Path, The
Cotswold Way, The Ridgeway and The South Downs Way.
The
DVDs have been written and presented by National Trail expert Anthony
Burton and are being produced by TV Walks.
Burton, who has written many National Trail books and seems like a
jolly sort of fella from the online trailers, says:
"The purpose of these Guides is to inspire walkers to explore
parts of our countryside they may not have previously considered.
"Each DVD has stunning photography of the actual walk and the
glorious countryside we travel through. The photography is
complemented by interesting insights into the history and geography
associated with each walk."
The next guides planned are to cover the Pembrokeshire Coast Path
and the Thames Path National Trails, so the emphasis at the moment
seems to be on the southern part of the UK.
The guides can be downloaded to video iPods or MP4 players for
£6.00 or bought on DVD from the TV Walks web site for £12
including postage and packing.
