      Both native Lancastrians, Dennis and Jan Kelsall have long held a passion for countryside and hill walking. Since their first Cicerone title was published in 1995, they have written and illustrated around 45 guides covering some of Britain’s most popular walking areas and regularly contribute to various outdoor magazines. Their enjoyment of the countryside extends far beyond a love of fresh air, the freedom of open spaces and an appreciation of scenery. Over the years Dennis and Jan have developed a wide interest in the environment, its geology and wildlife, as well as an enthusiasm for delving into the local history that so often provides clues to interpreting the landscape.

      Their other Cicerone titles explore the coast and countryside of Pembrokeshire, the Ribble Way, the variety of landscapes along the River Lune and its tributaries and the companion volume to this guide covering the southern and western areas of the Yorkshire Dales.
