Exmoor continues to keep giving.

I recently returned from Exmoor where we hosted on a Tailor Made Wilkes Walk for the Hillingdon Ramblers. It was a strong group wanting 10–12-mile walks, with up to 2400 feet (750m) of ascent/ descent. We included the best walks on moor, coastline and woodland. The weather was just perfect, and a great time was had by all.

Trekking, Temples, and Tigers 🐅

I love Nepal with a passion. Today, I'm heading back to the Himalayan country of Nepal, on another walking tour which I was asked to lead for Ramble Worldwide.

Beneath the Annapurna range, the tour has superb views in good weather. It is the perfect introduction to trekking, and indeed, to the Country of Nepal 🇳🇵. Locally, the walk is called The P**n Hill Trek, and we go to the 3200 meter high 'hill' at Sunrise. We are then visiting Chitwan National Park, searching for exotic wildlife there while staying at an amazing paradise which is both sustainable and ethical, Sapana Village Lodge.

Waxcap Wonderland

Waxcaps are the common name for a group of grassland fungi, and which are known for their colourful, shiny looking caps.

I see waxcaps at work as we have some ancient unimproved grasslands within Cedars Village in Chorleywood. To date four species.

Led by an expert in the field of waxcaps and surrounded by fungi enthusiasts, last weekend, alongside a local Fungi Group, we found TWELVE species of Waxcap, all in one amazing field within the Peak District National Park.

In order of appearance:

Golden
Crimson
Snowy
Golden & Butter
Honey
Heath
Parrot
Meadow
Spangle
Slimy
Blackening
Scarlet (small) & Crimson
