Brede Circular – 10.7 miles

  Then suddenly here we are, at the end of the summer. For our last adventure of the season, we had saved a new route found on the OS app. Beginning in Brede and heading to Staplecross and back (to places we have greatly enjoyed walking previously), this was on paper the perfect walk toContinue reading “Brede Circular – 10.7 miles”

Birling Gap Circular – 7.9 miles

  Well well well, look at that, back in the South Downs National Park! And for once, not due to a Goodwood-related event. This time, we would be returning to a site we had visited a few years previously, on which occasion the wind was so strong that we bravely turned around and went forContinue reading “Birling Gap Circular – 7.9 miles”

Salehurst Circular – 7.5 miles

  Oh, High Weald, how good it feels to finally be back on your footpaths. Almost a month had passed since we last trod the trails of this AONB, and it came as something of a relieving return to normality to be there once again. Not that it was completely unchanged. Late summer suddenly feltContinue reading “Salehurst Circular – 7.5 miles”

For this Sunday’s adventure, we undertook our third walk within the South Downs National Park. As per all other ventures in this direction, this was thanks to anContinue reading “Duncton Hill Circular – 7.4 Miles”

Tunnel Mountain (Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada) – 2.7 Miles

  Almost a week had passed since our venture to McKirdy Meadows with Joy and Suka. During this time, we had seen our fourth bear (thankfully from the safety of the car), travelled down through Jasper, over the Icefield Parkway and finally wound up in Banff. We also found ourselves in a hot tub, halfwayContinue reading “Tunnel Mountain (Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada) – 2.7 Miles”

Cranbrook to Benenden Circular – 9.5 miles

  We woke to a blue sky out the window, light pouring in from a day that promised to reach soaring temperatures.  After a quick spicy-fried egg bagel for breakfast, we pegged the washing out before leaving, and already we could feel the heat of the day creeping in…were we making a mistake?   WeContinue reading “Cranbrook to Benenden Circular – 9.5 miles”
