'A new guide that aims to unlock the beauty of the Ribble Way has been unleashed on eager walking enthusiasts. The Walk – whose route spans from the salt marshes of the Ribble Estuary to the towering peaks of Whernside, Ingleborough and Pen y Gent – is split into seven sections to help walkers comfortably complete the 71-mile route in a week.
Although the way passes through Preston, it remains largely untouched by the noise of bustling activity. Further upstream, the walk snakes through Clitheroe and Gisburn before turning north into the breathtaking beauty of the Yorkshire Dales, passing Settle and Horton in Ribblesdale, before it reaches the source of the river.
The book – written by Lancashire natives Dennis and Jan Kelsall – is illustrated with Ordnance survey mapping and includes guidance on public transport, local facilities and accommodation along the route.'
