Scenic walks to try this summer

We may be a small nation geographically, but what we lack in size we more than make up for in diversity and range of landscape to explore. With restrictions on travel meaning the UK is our best bet now when it comes to getting away, why not try some of Britain’s most stunning accessible walks?

It’s great to see so many people donning their walking boots and getting out through the pandemic, and I hope that some of the list below might give you some inspiration to head to the hills this summer.

Jutting out to the south of the famous coastal peninsula is The Lizard, a wild and windy mix of rugged coastal seascapes and unspoilt moorland. Our favourite walk takes us from Mullion Cove, a small fishing cove to the west of the peninsula, to Rosemullion, on the opposite side of the peninsula and a couple of days hiking away.
