      PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION

      Since the first edition of Walking in the Dordogne was published in 2004, the area has become even more popular with British visitors, many of whom have made it their second home. In addition, tourist offices have become increasingly aware that walking is a popular activity, and have made a considerable effort to create more walking trails, and to waymark them clearly. Despite this, the crowds rapidly fall away once you start walking, and you are soon alone.
