Carefully does it... Fiona making her way down Shenbarrow Hill to Stanton on day one of our Cotswold Way hike. It never looks as slippery in the photo as it is in real life! My Cotswold Way Adventure Journal series kicks off properly in my day one po… instagr.am/p/CsNuPj2IGRP/

My latest review features the Vasque Breeze hiking shoes. The spec list is strong. They claim to be durable, breathable, grippy, waterproof, and light. And over the last eight or nine weeks, I’ve found them to be those things for me. >> splodzblogz.co.uk/2023/03/09/vas… #Gifted

Views from the Cotswold Way... The geography of the western edge of the Cotswolds means there are big views at every turn. Here are just a few of them, taken on the first day of my Cotswold Way hike - an 18.5 mile stretch from Chipping Campden to Winch… instagr.am/p/CsQQTd1Ic_l/

If that first chapter of my #CotswoldWay adventure journal series was subtitled ‘on getting ready’, this post, should be considered ‘chapter two: the walking begins’. And what a beginning it was! New Splodz Blogz >> splodzblogz.co.uk/2023/05/14/cot… #GoHiking #GetOutside #NationalTrail

Riding my motorcycle in Iceland was such a great expeirence, I've put together a list of my top highlights. You know, the biggest views, most powerful waterfalls, best riding roads, and happiest moments. Along with a couple of the not-so-highlights... >> splodzblogz.co.uk/2023/04/23/mot…

Enjoying the sunshine... Doing my best to stick to my #OneHourOutside habit despite the business of life this week. These might be local manmade swales rather than natural lakes, and they might only be ten minutes' walk from my front door, but they s… instagr.am/p/CsX_Z8Yo0Po/

Hiking Red Pike in the Lake District during my coast to coast hike left me with an emotionally difficult memory. So I returned a year later to hike it again, to reclaim the mountain and my hiking self-confidence. But this time, it snowed... >> splodzblogz.co.uk/2023/01/01/rec…

I was invited to The Wave for a surfing lesson in the white-water of their artificial lake, and to stay in one of their onsite safari tents. To say I had a good time is an understatement. Surfing is honestly the best fun. >> splodzblogz.co.uk/2022/04/14/the… #OneHourOutside

Like a gear list post? Here is everything I took on my UK coast to coast hike - along with some thoughts on what I could have left at home! >> splodzblogz.co.uk/2023/04/02/coa… #C2C #CoastToCoast #GoHiking

Hidden away... Normally found standing proud atop hills, seen from miles around, marking its place with apparent defiance - this humble trig pillar I bagged on my walk yesterday was much more quiet and unassuming. If I hadn't gone looking for it, I woul… instagr.am/p/CsfvSV7Iw1c/

I love Visit Dorset. It's such a beautiful place to walk. In this post I share two contrasting walks on the Dorset coast. The iconic rugged and rocky one. And another more about the rolling countryside. >> splodzblogz.co.uk/2023/02/19/two… #GoHiking #GetOutside #OneHourOutside

I attempted to write some words about just how epic Iceland is... Back in summer 2021, I spent two weeks riding my F650GS through the wild and rugged landscapes of this amazing country. I definitely left a bit of my soul behind. >> splodzblogz.co.uk/2023/02/23/ove… GlobeBusters

How do you keep fit? I gave the very popular Couch to 5k programme a go, in an attempt to up my hiking fitness. I've got two long distance hikes planed this year, so I'm hoping it works! >> splodzblogz.co.uk/2022/12/15/cou… [Trainers #Gifted via the #AdidasBloggerCommunity]
