Access Adventure

This book is a unique and inspiring guide to the UK’s best trails and outdoor adventures, opened up to all through the expertise of accessibility champion Debbie North and her interviewees. From the crunch of gravel on a canal path to the hush of woodland in morning light, it celebrates the space, stillness and connection that only the outdoors can offer.

Access Adventure takes readers from the Lake District to the Kent and Hampshire coast, the Yorkshire Dales to the Brecon Beacons and Wye Valley, and the Isle of Skye to Rendlesham Forest’s UFO trail. Each accessible route comes with practical details and ideas for nearby adventures, all specifically written with wheelchair-users in mind.

Alongside route descriptions, Debbie shares moving stories of people whose lives have been transformed by being outdoors. These walks don’t just guide you through landscapes – they offer a window into human resilience, welcoming all who seek both adventure and a deeper connection with nature and each other.
