Walking

[Jebus_lives]

As I do a lot of hill walking and I couldn't seem to find a thread about it, I thought I'd start one.

In the next few weeks I am going to try and do this walk: www.walkingenglishman.com/northyorkshire11

Starting to get some preparation for July when I am walking the Yorkshire 3 Peaks.

But for anyone who already enjoys it and anyone that is interested; post any suggested walks in here, any tips and advice, pictures and routes.

A friend of mine is currently trying to do all of the Munros this year. He did all the 3000ft mountains in Wales last year.

But intense for me though, I'd maybe do a few in the year, but not 50+

Brecon beacons for me. Just choose any route up to and down from the peaks. I've done most of them in most weathers and its a joy every time.

Before my knees and feet packed in that is. Enjoy the outdoors while you can.

Live in the Lake District so I’m spoiled for choice really.

I had to take a bit of time off last year due to a bad knee. Hurting as I was coming down hill. Seems to have cleared up now after a bit of physio.

My favourite of the Brecon Beacons:

Any favourites?

I usually do my first walk of the year around Derwent Water and Cat Bells. Plenty of good pubs en route and you can skip Cat Bells if the weather is bad.

Perthshire is great .
Some fabulous scenery again.
Not as cold either.

Have taken kids from school up those peaks over the last 30 years. For some reason the course leaders never use the name of that particular peak! lol

Been that way for mini breaks but not done any hill walking up there. The scenery is fabulous, as you say, so I imagine well worth a trip.

Hebden Bridge to Stoodley Pike. Uphill all the way there though.
