If we can take any positive from the Covid Pandemic, it is that it has sparked a real interest in connection with the outdoors for so many. Even when for those of us, where the prospect of not being able to get out to our beloved mountains and beauty spot was a soul destroying prospect, what it did was made us discover adventure closer to home. Not only trails but wildlife, amazing rare unique wildlife right under our noses! People from all walks of life, discovering that actually the outdoors & nature does include everyone and they should not be excluded from it!This got me me thinking about our amazing little island and as we slowly come out of the pandemic there will ultimatley be a rush to those honey spots, what if though we could break from the crowd and discover other pockets of the UK, that have heritage, history, nature, landscapes and people, people who have a story to tell and are from all walks of like.I am on a mission to walk a trail in every county in the UK, not on my own however. I will connect with local people (as guidance allows) over the next year. As part of this collection, I will be highlighting and writing up top trails, on top of this however I will be doing the following:Meet champions within their communities who promote all walks of life accessing the outdoors. Working with local wildlife experts, giving insight into trails that offer the best for wildlife spotting People of interest who have an amazing story to tell, or who are truly inspiringLonger more challenge related trails in quieter areas that you can explore.It will take me a while but my hope is to try and show the versatility of adventure that can be found in the UK and show the different types of trails that are accessible from all walks of life and interest. As we come out of the pandemic and larger groups allow. I will open up trails for bigger groups to join,So watch this space :) and let me know of any trails in your county.

  4. Komoot begon als een app om fietsliefhebbers te helpen routes te vinden en te verkennen en dat evolueerde toen ook naar wandelen, maar het ethos van Komoot is dat toegang tot het buitenleven voor iedereen is en eigenlijk een van de belangrijkste dingen is dat fietsroutes kunnen worden gebruikt door mensen

    This is the first time I have ever done a thru-hike wild camping trip on my own. I have wanted to do the John Muir Way for a really long time. SO many people talk about the West Highland Way, and don't get me wrong that is on my radar, but for me I really wanted to see a different side to Scotland and

    Ik werd 's ochtends wakker met een koude wolk, met tegenzin om uit mijn slaapzak te komen, en de hete rode bal zonneschijn waar ik in slaap was gevallen, was samengegaan met het uitzicht op de bergen. Het was ongeveer 5 uur 's ochtends toen ik besloot mezelf te overtuigen om mijn slaapzak uit te breken

    I didn't want to get up, and the air was definitely cold outside, but the need to have to wee overpowered the need to get out the warmth of my sleeping bag. It was 5am and because of where I had chosen to camp that night, I needed to be up and packed away early. With wild camping along a route of this

    Na drie dagen in mijn eentje te hebben doorgebracht, was het een welkome traktatie om enkele speciale gasten bij me te hebben toen ik vanmorgen vanuit Falkirk vertrok.

    

    Bryony en Leanne (ja nog een Bryony, de Schotse versie) zijn twee geweldige dames die ik de afgelopen jaren op Instagram heb ontmoet en

    From day five onwards to Edinburgh it finally felt like I had broken the back of the trail as I headed east towards Edinburgh.

    

    I started the day from Blackness Castle, an impressive building that stands out on the sea. It was early and eerie, and I wondered around the grounds for a while and then headed

    The penultimate day of the trail. I woke up early to take advantage of a long shower, re-packed my bag and waited for the arrival of another guest to walk with me on my travels. Jess Adams, again is someone I connected with over social media. I had followed her for a while and loved her style and humour

    The final day. We woke to a beautiful golden beach, early morning dog walkers, swimmers and runners. We took three years to get unsuccessfully get every bit sand out of everything, but totally worth the beach camp.

    

    We were starting early, Jess asking how I felt about it being the last day. I never know
