CAMRA's South East Pub Walks {{ CAMRA'S SOUTH EAST PUB WALKS }} By Steel, Bob ( AUTHOR) Apr-30-2012 Paperback – 30 April 2012

This book is great. I've only had the chance to properly use it once so far, but have read through and am really looking forward to trying more of the walks. The one walk I have been on (circular walk in Surrey including some of the North Downs Way) was brilliant. 3 lovely pubs with very friendly locals and proper ales (my one criticism would be the only cider on tap was Strongbow - if you can call that a cider). The book has a map showing the route, and excellent descriptions of the walk using roads and building/ land markers and other features. We had a wonderful day. Bring on the next!

Very useful book for walking.

This is a great book for exploring the English countyside and some lovely pubs. The photographs add a nice touch and descriptions of the landscape and pubs really good. I would appreciate a little more detail on the pubs like history etc but maybe that would make the book to big for carrying on a walk. The walks vary in length from 6 to over 10 miles none so far that I have done were too difficult. A few of the pubs recommend are real gems, proper old style pubs with some tasty ales you just don't find in most pubs. I have done about 7 of the walks now. Some are fairly easy to navigate and one or two have been a little more difficult in parts. If you are use to walking the directions are easy enough to follow but even if your a newbie you will get the hang of it pretty quick.Most of the walks are circular which is great if you are driving. My only comment about things to include in the second edition would be pull out maps. Even though it references the OS map you need a little pull out of the walk map would be handy especially when it is raining. All in all for the price it is you can't go wrong even if you only do one or two of the walks.
