The book contains a section on Argyll's archaeological and historical past followed by 25 of the best heritage and natural heritage walks in Kilmartin Glen, Craignish, Kilmichael Glen and Knapdale. The title of the book is In the Footsteps of Kings and it retails at £7.99. Stunning photography of the area by Dr Aaron Watson complements the text.

We were delighted to welcome Jim Gilchrist, freelance journalist, to Kilmartin recently. He wrote a very interesting piece for the Scotsman based on the Walking Guide. His article can be downloaded from here. |
