This book presents 100 delightful walks across Britain for families with children aged 0 and up, featuring routes that accommodate carriers and buggies. The walks are categorized by themes such as mini mountains, paddling spots, beaches, woodlands, wildlife, lake circumnavigations, and routes starting from child-friendly cafes. An informative introduction offers advice on making family walks enjoyable, covering essential topics like clothing, equipment, food, the countryside code, and a light-hearted troubleshooting guide for common issues. The walks are organized by geographical areas: England (south-west, south-east, central north-west, north-east), Wales (south, central, north), and Scotland (borders, south, central, north, and islands). Symbols indicate features like parking, toilets, child-friendly cafes, baby changing, dog-friendliness, and buggy accessibility. QR codes link to free online OS maps for each route, allowing readers to access maps on their phones. Each route is graded for difficulty, ensuring they are short to moderate and achievable for those with a good fitness level. Themed walks include points of interest to engage children and promote outdoor enjoyment. Illustrated with the authors' photography, this guidebook is an inspiring resource for families eager to explore the outdoors.
