This guidebook describes 30 day walks all over the Isles of Harris and Lewis, in the Outer Hebrides.

The routes take in most of the main summits as well as historical and geographical places of interest.

Tips are also included about walking on St Kilda, Berneray, Taransay, The Shiant Islands and The Flannan Isles, along with a short Gaelic glossary and route summary table, and advice on practicalities to make the most out of any walking trip on Harris and Lewis.
