Since the start of April, I've been trying to get out and hike another Long Distance Trail but weather (including Storm Dave) and other commitments have stopped me from going 😢.
So in the meantime, I've decided that I'm going to day hike a local trail, the 33 mile River Coln Trail. Watch out for the video! atb Simon

'End-to-End Walking Challenge' -
A section of the England Coast Path from Minehead to Weston-super-Mere has now been backpacked in 5 days. As you will see in the video, the weather was wonderful, no rain and blue skies.
I've walked over 1,000 miles so far on this Challenge, just under 500 miles to go!

I'm starting the West Highland Way this week after having to cancel my trip last year.
It's my first Backpacking trip in Scotland too.
So I REALLY can't wait to get going 🥾⛺

I think it's time to update my Channel's Trailer, which I produced in 2019.
Same format as before but with some up-to-date images and better aligned with my uploads.
I'm working on it now, should be out in July, atb Simon

Living in Gloucestershire I really think I should walk The Gloucestershire Way soon!
I'm hoping to start walking and filming it this week 😊.
Initially I'll be backpacking it then 'day walking' it from home, atb Simon

Hi there,
First good walk since The Wardens' Way back in late October!
It was along the Cotswold Way to Belas Knap but as you can see the weather was very misty.
Never mind, I'll be out again later in the month to film a 'Winter Solstice Wander', atb Simon
