Isle of Man Wildflower Walks - Paperback

by Simon Smart (Author)

The walks in this book will take you to some of the most diverse habitats for wildflowers on the Isle of Man, including the alkaline limestone soil in the south of the island, salt marshes at Langness, acid bogs in the mountains and many forests and glens.

In this book you will find three walks for each season of the year, with each focusing on the flowers that you can find in the related season.Each walk in this book is accompanied by a map, along with the GPS coordinates of the walk's starting point. You can also find a web address and QR code that will take you to maps and directions to the walk's starting point.

On the pages following each walk you can find further information about the flowers that can be found, including pictures and their Latin and Manx names.

Most of the walks in this book are short and easy, focusing more on the wildflowers found along the way than on long walks or circuits.
