Take a Hike... The routes we feature have always been created and walked recently by ourselves, so you know you can trust them - we aim for unpopulated routes with as little road and as many views as possible! You can always see the route and follow it yourself via the free Outdoor Active app see all our routes here. (you need to click the ‘contents’ tab - the dropdown box above lets you see the ‘tracks’ of every single walk we do, and the ‘routes’ of those we choose to actually publish)
Getting out for some exercise each day is more essential than ever during lockdown. We’ve been restricted for months thanks to Courtenay’s knee injury, but we’ve slowly started enjoying a few short (for us) slow strolls. This particular one was an absolute joy - we headed out on the afternoon of New Years Eve and we took it oh-so-slow. The light was glorious, the air was crisp, the shadows long, and we simply breathed in the dying embers of the year, making plans for better days ahead. Clearly we all need to think about what ‘local’ is during lockdown - this walk may need to wait until we’re all moving around more freely again. But do please bookmark it and go try it. We’ve been asked for some shorter routes, and at just over four miles on wide easy tracks, this one’s for almost everybody. You will not be disappointed.
