GM Ringway Stage 3- Day 1 Burnage to Bramhall

The GM Ringway is a relatively new 200 mile, twenty stage, long distance footpath that starts in Manchester city centre before circumnavigating Greater Manchester.

A Lyme Park walk from Disley

Over the years a Lyme Park walk from Disley has been one of my “go to” walks when time is short but I want to feel as if I have got away. Since returning from Patagonia at the end of October walks have been few and far between due to a combination of working as

El Chalten Day Walks

El Chalten styles itself as the walking capital of Argentina, a title that was just too enticing to resist, so after our epic Torres del Paine trek we headed to this beautiful, mountain ringed town via the very efficient cross-border coach. The town has something of a Wild West feel to it with only the
