Hello and a very big welcome to my weblog “tothehills”.
My site, as I add my diary posts, will build a retrospective look back at country walks I’ve done, in what I hope is an informative and entertaining way for you to share.
Country Walking, Rambling, Hiking, Hill Walking, Mountain Walking (or whatever you want to call this great pastime) is my most enduring passion and as such I have tried to convey this in my writings.
Please dip-in and find out about the walks I’ve done and places I’ve been.
I hope my diaries give you walks ideas for yourself.

The interesting stuff (I hope) :-
I intend to separate my walks diaries into several regions in order to make Navigation as easy and as intuitive possible. It may take some time to post something in each category, but I hope to populate each “folder” in time.
My diaries are written in an informal style describing the walks I’ve done, combining general route descriptions with comments about anything related to the walk, whether it be the weather, particular views, emotions, etc.
The boring stuff (perhaps) :-
I will also add some pages that describe who I am, general interests, and various scribblings related to my walking activities and my views and opinions.
These are not essential to read before dipping straight into the walks but I hope they convey a bit more about me and how country walking has been a huge part of my non-working life.
Because walking in the countryside has its hazards and risks please read my disclaimer.
I hope you enjoy reading my walking diaries and scribblings.
Gary.
