A collaborative effort between Kev Reynolds and Jonathan and Lesley Williams who – following Kev’s death in December 2021 – updated and refreshed the route details, planning resources and maps based on research trips in 2022 and 2023. Jonathan and Lesley are retiring from being Cicerone’s publisher and marketing director (respectively), so have few excuses for not spending days in the hills.
