Walking Audio is a series of walking and outdoor guides on audio CD. Each double-CD pack in the series is an audio journey, featuring some of the best walks of the area, together with visits to places that have made the area famous.

If you've ever been on a holiday or trip and returned realising you've missed the best bits, then this series of audio CDs is for you!

The CDs are presented by Tommy Pearson, presenter of BBC radio and television and an enthusiastic walker. The walks themselves are guided by other broadcasters with a keen passion for walking and their companions on the walks are writers, conservators, wardens, historians, curators, dowsers, walking tour guides and all manner of experts.

All the WalkingAudio double-CD packs come in a shock-proof DVD style case and are in fact much more than an audio guide; they are packed with fascinating sound, unique hidden treasures, readings, interviews and a wealth of specialist knowledge from experts in the field. 

Each production is very much a mixture of travel guide, local stories, history and background that lead you through the various featured walks and this carefully crafted mixture comes from the many guests our teams walk with and meet en-route. Together with their intimate knowledge, and more than a sprinkling of humour, they paint wonderful and exclusive 'images through sound' to be treasured. 

Walking Audio CDs are not just about walking though; they are filled with practical information, ideas and places to visit for anyone wishing to visit the area - even if you stay in your car! With over two and a half hour's total audio in each pack, Walking Audio CDs can be played on any CD player - at home, in the car or even on your personal CD player to take on the walk (you can of course transfer the CD audio tracks to your MP3 player - full instructions come with each pack).

Also, each CD pack comes with a fully illustrated booklet that you can take on the walk containing grid references, GPS points, photos and maps. There are 'Direct Access' marks throughout the booklet indicating which track to go to whilst planning a walk or if you want to use it as an audio guide on the walk itself.

All the music on the CDs is beautifully mixed, illustrating appropriate moments. For example the English Symphony Orchestra's version of Elgar's 'Nimrod' and other Elgar pieces feature on the Malvern Hills CD. (The ESO is based in Malvern, Elgar lived in Malvern and his walks in the Malvern Hills provided much inspiration for his work). 

The music, from Nimbus Records, is well documented in the booklet and can be obtained separately from all good music stores.

WalkingAudio CDs are a fantastic way to get the most out of a holiday, and can be used again and again:

	Planning A Trip: the walks and visits on WalkingAudio CDs will ensure that you don't miss the most important things on the trip you are planning.
	At Home: planning a holiday, visit or walking tour - listen to the glorious sounds and the beautifully crafted guides, and use the CD-Rom as a planning guide before you travel.
	In The Car:  listening on the way to the area to whet your appetite for the numerous things to see and do - a wonderful way to keep the kids interested too!
	On Your CD Walkman: listen while on the walk itself. The CDs are designed to be fully accessible, and with any CD player you can have your very own, personal audio guide using our comprehensive index system.
	On Your MP3 Player: transfer  via iTunes™, Windows™ MediaPlayer™ or any other method onto your favourite MP3 player and use the same 'Direct Access' points in the booklet.
