SAFETY
Before setting off make sure you are acquainted with the safety aspects
of long distance walking and remember that the weather can change very
quickly.
Care should be taken on any walks, and in particular long distance ones,
be prepared, buy a map and plan the route and let someone know where you
are.
If you take a dog on a long walk do make sure you know the dog is fit
enough to undertake such a walk and don't ask too much!
Your dog's safety is in your hands. Take plenty of breaks, carry water,
a first aid kit and poo bags. Visit our Travel Advice page for further
information.
Observe the Countryside Code and control dogs.

| The
beauty and variety of the landscape of Northern Ireland makes it an ideal place for exploring on foot. It has wild craggy mountains, splendid lakes and a sweeping coastline. This is a land of blue mountains and forest parks, lakes and windswept moors. Dozens of small towns are hidden away down among the green places of the countryside, and fishing villages string out along the shores |

| Wales
is a country of varied and dramatic landscape and you’re never
far from a mountain or the sea. There are 498 miles of national trails
to follow and 18 regional routes to roam. The Gower Peninsula was the first area in the whole of the UK to be designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1956, and our landscape is mountainous, particularly in north and mid Wales. The highest mountains are in the dark and craggy Snowdonia range in the north, and include Snowdon and as you travel south the landscape becomes much softer, though the hills remain. In mid Wales there are the Cambrian Mountains and moving further south The Brecon Beacons. |

| The Lake District is a walker's paradise at any time. The Lake District National Park is famous for its stunning scenery, abundant wildlife and cultural heritage. At 2,292 sq km (885 SQ MILES) the largest of England's National Parks provides an exciting mix of mountain and lake scenery. But take care: the weather can change suddenly, and even if it looks fine at lower elevations, the peaks may be subject to unpleasant conditions. Always check the weather forecast before setting out. For the less adventurous there are countless trails among the lower fells and around the shores of the lakes which make for fine walking. The "Mountain Goat" buses will get you to most of the main passes for fell walking. |  |

It covers 555 square miles of the north of the county, taking in the limestone plateau and dales of the White Peak, and the brooding gritstone moors and edges of the Dark Peak. |  |
