I’m typing this well over a week after this walk. It’s been such a busy time of the year.

I set off on Saturday, 4 February 2023 for a hike based on an All Trail route, which I modified slightly. I parked at the delightful Whitehall garden centre and tea room, in Woodborough, and walk a circular route.

Here’s my map.

Much of the area reminded me of the route we took with Aimee and Richard on my Walk Across Wiltshire in June last year.

It was a little cold be a nice walk and I was just so relieved and happy to have gone out, after about 10 days cooped up at home, isolating because I managed to catch COVID for the first time in three years of avoiding it.

So I took it easy as I was still very tired from it.

Here are a few pictures from the hike.

I used my trusty trail running shoes as my hiking boots were falling apart after around 10 years of using them.

Next outing next month, because this coming weekend, I’ll be volunteering at the Festival of Tomorrow. But I might post about my plans for walking Hadrian’s Wall.

(I went to buy new boots in the afternoon!)
