Hiking in the UK covers a broad selection of printed guidebooks, trail companions and maps from trusted publishers. The range spans short family-friendly walks, classic day routes and long-distance paths, with clear mapping and straightforward directions.

For convenient browsing, titles are organised into regional collections for North Britain, West Britain, Central Britain, East Britain and South Britain, alongside country-focused selections for England, Scotland and Wales. This makes it simple to match a book or map to the area being explored.

Guidebooks typically include graded routes, concise turn-by-turn descriptions, overview maps, waypoints and practical notes on access, terrain, time and ascent. Many also feature highlights, elevation profiles and transport pointers, helping plan safe and enjoyable days in National Parks, coastal paths and upland areas.

Maps complement the books where a wider view or precise navigation is needed. Options include detailed walking maps at common outdoor scales such as 1:25,000 for fine detail and 1:50,000 for broader coverage. Durable and weather-resistant formats are available for use in poor conditions.

Choosing the right title usually comes down to coverage, route length and detail. Check the exact area, the difficulty grading, distance per route, seasonal advice and publication date to ensure up-to-date information. Consider format and weight for pack space, and look for features such as route variants or downloadable resources where available.

OutdoorXL is a store and webshop with an extensive choice in this category, offering guidebooks and maps from recognised publishers and mapmakers. The assortment allows easy comparison by region, country and format, so it is straightforward to find the practical information needed for hiking in the UK.
