Alone on the South Downs Way is the story of Holly Worton's 100 mile walking journey along one of England's National Trails in 2015.

More than just a walking travelogue or memoirs of a walking holiday, this book contains Holly's reflections on walking the Way, including lessons learned and practical information to help you plan your South Downs Way hiking adventure.
