Trail  |  August 2016

If you’ve ever fancied walking in a place that has views of the highest bits of Wales, England and Northern Ireland and a good deal of Scotland – yet is so mysterious there isn’t even a 1:25,000 map for it – then take a look at the Isle of Man. Plus, Ben Lomond’s wild side; getting your kids out on their first
hillwalk; some of the latest entries for Mountain Photo of the Year 2016; a short and distinctly quirky history of British geology... and then, if it all gets a bit much, a pithy discourse about walking alone. Reasons to be cheerful? There’s loads! Life is far simpler in the hills. So let’s go.
