Guidebooks from Pocket Mountains

Pocket Mountains publish accessible and inspiring pocket-sized guidebooks for anyone who likes a bit of an adventure.

You’ll find Pocket Mounatins books in high street book shops, outdoors shops, gift shops, cafes and visitor information centres around Scotland and the rest of the UK.

Pocket Mountains published their first books back in 2003 – nominated for a British Book Design Award and a Scottish Thistle Award, that series of guides by Nick Williams to the Scottish mountains has now sold in excess of 150,000 copies. They’ve since published cycling, easy walking, wildlife and running guides to various parts of Scotland, England and Wales.

Their aim is to make inspirational and accessible guides which appeal to all ages and abilities – and which take folk to places they’ve never been to before to do things they might not otherwise have done – and have fun while they’re at it.
