The route is way-marked in both directions, and was opened in Spring 2003. It is named after the writer and diplomat John Buchan (1875-1940), who has many associations with the area.

inside books A blog about reading and literature Archive for the 'John Buchan' Category book of books - The 39 Steps December 17, 2006 The reason for choosing this book by John Buchan as a lunchtime read is because it is a slim volume that can be consumed easily in sections over lunch. The unforeseen problem is that it is so addictive that it is almost impossible to put it down and turn back to the screen to get on with your work. Plot summary The story focuses on Richard Hannay a mining engineer who has returned to London after an absence of some years and is on the brink of heading to South Africa to avoid the boredom when he comes across a strange man called Scudder. The stranger outlines a plan to destabilise Europe and bring on war by murdering the Greek leader and just as it seems like he might live to solve the mystery he is killed and Hannay, armed with Scudder’s black notebook, is left to solve the crime and stop the Germans from getting away with the secrets - something he manages to do. Is it well written?
