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.

Komoot è nata come un'app per aiutare gli appassionati di bici a trovare percorsi ed esplorare e poi si è evoluta anche nell'escursionismo, tuttavia l'etica di Komoot è che l'accesso all'aria aperta è per tutti e in realtà una delle cose fondamentali è che le piste ciclabili possono essere utilizzate…

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…

Mi sono svegliato al mattino con una nuvola fredda, riluttante a tirare fuori il sacco a pelo, e la calda sfera di sole rosso in cui mi ero addormentato si era accompagnata alla vista delle montagne. Erano circa le 5 del mattino quando ho deciso di convincermi a tirare fuori il sacco a pelo e fare il…

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…

Dopo aver trascorso tre giorni da solo, è stato un piacere avere ospiti speciali che si unissero a me mentre partivo da Falkirk questa mattina.
Bryony e Leanne (sì, un altro Bryony, la versione scozzese) sono due donne fantastiche che ho conosciuto su Instagram negli ultimi anni e ci siamo trovati molto…

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…
