“Mountains are the means, the man is the end. The goal is not to reach the tops of mountains, but to improve the man.”

 Walter Bonatti

I’ve been fortunate to have walked in some of the most beautiful places on Earth and always kept a walking journal, a place where I record my observations, thoughts and personal reflections on the walks I do. This website is an online extension of that journal.

Each post is accompanied by my own photography and video and a route map with stats and geolocated pictures of the walk described.

 I have a long term project of walking all the Wainwright’s Book by Book. You can read more about that Here

I hope you enjoy reading about my walks and if you find inspiration to explore some for yourself, all the better.*
