getting about that time to start planning some big walks. got any planned? i wnna do some stuff in the south west that i’ve never done. gonna have a potter about epping forest at the weekend but wanna get a decent hike in sometime soon as well.
had a bit of a crazy idea for a project to walk the entire south west coast path. it’s 630 miles in total, so if you did 30 miles a day you could do it in 21 days, so pretty much spread it over a month would be doable. camping and having days off inbetween. what do you reckon, marckee?
This sounds great and horrific at the same time. A whole month or walking and camping.
In terms of camping would you have many options for hotels or B&B type things on that path? I’m just thinking in terms of ‘days off’ or if it’s a walking day that’s just rain the whole time, you would probably need to find somewhere warm to sleep, right?
As mentioned elsewhere, I will be taking the scenic walk down Commercial Road to West India Quay Cineworld this evening taking in the following sights:
Dusted off the walking boots (or rather bought some new ones) recently and me and the TV have been going for walkies every weekend.
Been down to the Malverns and Shropshire Hills. Might go up the Peak District and/or Snowdonia in the summer.
Walked it into Brum and back along the canal last Sunday, was about 9 miles there and back.
A few years ago my mate and some of his pals did a charity walk along the Pennine Way. I’d like to do something like that, it’s just getting the time and that to do it I suppose.
Not done any hiking since doing the 5 peaks a couple of years ago. It was brilliant, but I quickly found out that hiking up mountains isn’t for me and I’d rather cycle up them. Slieve Donard and Snowdon were particularly bad.
you can def catch a bus/train to all these places but not sure about details, i’ve not really had time for hiking here yet but gonna do loads as soon as these deadlines are over yay. also the weather is great at the moment. lemme know if you want any general budapest advice!
