Along with single day hikes I've been lucky enough to take on a couple of longer trips. Mostly tours of areas with campsites along the way and some long distancing multiday hiking.
My long distance, 180 mile, 9 day hike which included almost 28,000 feet of elavation gain. All in the effort to raise funds and awareness for the mental health charity Mind.
All the gear I take with me on my adventures. I go into detail about some of the gear that I've on my hiking can camping adventuresthat doesn't break the bank (mostly!).
Camping, wild camping and hiking in Loch Lomond & the Trossachs, the Cairngorms and a very clear day for a hike up Ben Nevis.
A two week tour of the Scottish National Parks Loch Lomond & the Trossachs and the Cairngorms. A snowy, foggy hike up Ben Nevis and a trip to the north western coastal village of Clachtoll in the Assyant.
Wether it is planning long expeidations, charity hiking routes or just being prepared as I can be for day hikes. Here are some of the tools that I use to plan my hikes and trips.
I've got a huge list of routes planned out which cover some of the other amazing National Parks in the United Kingdom which I haven't had the chance to visit yet. The likes of Northumberland, Dartmoor and Exmoor are all on looking likely in the next twelve months.
