'A comprehensive guide to the best, most captivating walks in Tipperary and Waterford by expert hillwalker John G. O'Dwyer John G. O'Dwyer has walked the mountains and moorlands of Tipperary and Waterford for many years. His comprehensive guide to the best, most captivating walks in these counties features walks to suit all tastes, from the rugged Comeragh coums to the peaks of the Galtees, from the mythladen hills of Slievenamon and the Devil's Bit to fi eld systems and ancient pathways in Upperchurch and Kilcommon. Each walk description has directions, the degree of diffi culty, estimated time and maps. But this is more than just a walking guide. Each route is a journey with a story about a landscape littered with historic artefacts. A booley on a hillside tells how the uplands contributed to human survival, a ruined cottage confi rms a battle lost. This guidebook describes walks not just for committed hillwalkers and casual ramblers: it also contains much of interest for environmentalists, historians and all who wish to understand the age-old interaction between humans and hills. John G. O'Dwyer is a tour operator and also teaches tourism to further education students. A keen hillwalker and rock-climber, he is a founder member of Mid-Tipp Hillwalkers and has almost 25 years' experience of leading hillwalking and mountain climbing groups in Ireland, the UK, Europe and Africa.
