Wild Signs and Star Paths is Tristan Gooley’s immersive guide to understanding the natural world through the clues hidden in every landscape. Drawing on traditional navigation skills, indigenous knowledge and years of exploration, Gooley reveals how to interpret the subtle signs in weather, trees, water, wildlife, tracks and stars that most people overlook.
This book teaches you how to read the outdoors with confidence — from recognising how birds signal approaching weather, to spotting the way shadows, ripples and plant growth reveal direction. Each of the 52 “keys” offers a practical insight you can use immediately on your next walk, whether you’re exploring woodland, coastline, moorland or your local footpaths.
Perfect for nature lovers, walkers, hikers, campers and slow‑travel enthusiasts, this is a book that deepens your connection with the world around you. Gooley’s writing blends science, storytelling and hands‑on guidance, helping you see familiar places with new clarity.
Whether you’re planning winter adventures, learning to navigate without technology, or simply wanting to notice more on your daily walks, Wild Signs and Star Paths is an inspiring companion that transforms the way you experience the outdoors.
