Often overlooked in favour of better-known national parks, Lincolnshire rewards those who explore on foot. John and Annie Fergusson have chosen 40 of the county's finest walks.   Along the coast, you'll wander through sweeping dunes, salt marshes and nature reserves alive with seals, waders and migrating birds. Inland, the rolling chalk hills of the Lincolnshire Wolds, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offer sheltered valleys, ancient woodland and far-reaching views, while the flatter farmland of the south is a patchwork of drains, dykes and lonely churches beneath enormous skies.   The walks pass historic market towns, handsome medieval churches and stately homes, and follow in the footsteps of Romans, Vikings and airmen, from Lincoln's hilltop cathedral to the poignant memorials of Bomber County.   Each route comes with clear directions, a detailed map, distance and time estimates, and notes on refreshment stops and points of interest.   Whether you live locally or are visiting for a weekend, this is an inspiring introduction to a county that surprises and delights at every turn.   Part of the Pocket Mountains series of compact, beautifully produced walking guides, at only £6.99.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57695196447093,"sku":"9781916739154","price":6.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781916739154.jpg?v=1793031857"}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/collections\/author-john-fergusson.oembed","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
