Hiking
/ Outdoors
Warwickshire has literally hundreds of footpaths, tracks, canal
towpaths and disused railway lines to walk (or ride) along. They
range from a light stroll from the car to see a historical site or
picturesque view to the longer, more strenuous routes, for the more
serious hiker.
Usually there is no shortage of pubs and restaurants to be found
along the way for refreshment's. There are, of course, many places
to choose from to stay overnight whether you require a campsite or a
cosy Bed and Breakfast.
There are several books, maps and guides about Warwickshire available
in our Book Store giving details of the many
places to visit.
