Lovely stroll through forests and woodland and a past few reservoirs, and stopped for a nice brew at the White Coppice Nursery Cafe ☕️🤩

Lovely walk through Gisburn Forest, which was so peaceful. Only downside was there are lots of different routes for walkers and bikers, but some of the walkers paths were none existent, so we had to change our route a few times and walk down the bikers paths, luckily they were not too busy

A couple of Wainwright's on this loop and I also included Orrest Head, which although it's not a Wainwright itself, I wanted to visit as this was the 1st place in the Lakes that Alfred Wainwright visited, back in 1930, and once he caught the view from the summit his love for the Lake District began

Nice but chilly night walking through all the lights in Blackpool. We jumped on the tram near Starr Gate and got off at Bispham, and then walked all the way back down with a lovely chippy stop on the way 😀

Ticked another 4 Wainwright's off the list with this loop. It was a really nice hike, although not really any decent views and it was very boggy in places which slowed us down a bit, but we still enjoyed it 😀
Branstree #81 - 713m
Tarn Crag (Sleddale) #104 - 664m
Selside Pike #110 - 655m
Grey Crag (Sleddale) #118 - 638m

Felt amazing to be back out in the mountains after a few weeks away, and this was a really great loop which bags 6 Wainwright's. Was a bit worried I'd get no views as it was very cloudy walking upto the 1st peak, but at the top I got the most amazing cloud inversion, definitely the best one I've ever

A great loop which included 3 amazing waterfalls and a few caves.
The waterfalls were all flowing rapid after yesterday's torrential rain, so they were incredible to see 👌 and one of the caves was massive so you could get really far inside 😊

Lovely walk around Scarborough, up the beaches and checked out the castle ruins, and the mandatory ice cream stop 🍦👌

Such a gorgeous wintery day to go for a good hike... but this wasn't it 🤣 the views were beautiful but it was soo boggy literally everywhere and where it wasn't a bog it was frozen ice on the rocks which were so slippy and nearly killed me a few times 😆 This slowed me down a lot but still managed to
