Wednesday Wanders is a book about walking; not a guidebook with detailed route descriptions and maps, but the journal of a walker looking to broaden his horizons by seeing what could be achieved with an early start and still be home for tea (or supper more often). Weekly adventures setting out from northwest London to explore some of the long-distance footpaths of southeast England.Written in a light-hearted, humorous, but sometimes thoughtful style, it's a journal of determination and achievement sitting alongside not a little folly, with some inept navigation and unrealistic plans. More importantly, it's about what happened along the way, the fascination of places visited, the people met, the animals encountered, and perhaps most significantly, discovering the unexpected beauty and varied countryside in this corner of the country.Each chapter covers one of the seven routes attempted. Starting with the London LOOP, although this was the last walk completed. Chapter two returns to the beginning with a naïve walker setting out on the first stage of the North Downs Way from Farnham to Guildford on a wet and travel-disrupted day in early November. That chapter finishes five months later, on a bright but windy spring day, along the cliff tops into Dover. Proving that you can indeed complete a long-distance path in day trips.¿Five more routes are covered: the Ridgeway, Icknield Way Path, the Chiltern Way, Greensand Way, and the Hertfordshire Way. Some walks were interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic or the onset of winter when the days were too short to complete their further reaches, but all were eventually finished. A thousand miles of walking recalled in a diary entry format. Each outing is dated, and the location and mileage given.

Puh, wer hier hoch möchte, sollte Wanderschuhe an den Füßen und eine ordentliche Portion Luft in der Lunge haben. Steil führt der Weg den Berg hinauf. Auf der Höhe angekommen, wird die Kletterei mit einem weiten Blick über den Niederrhein belohnt. Moment mal - Berge am Niederrhein? Das ist doch wohl ein Widerspruch in sich. Die Topografie des Niederrheins wird allerorts mit einem Wort beschrieben: topfeben. Am Niederrhein kann man heute schon sehen, wer übermorgen zu Besuch kommt. Böse Zungen behaupten sogar, die höchsten Erhebungen am Niederrhein sind die Brücken.Auf diese Aussagen antwortet der Niederrheiner mit der klassischen niederrheinischen Floskel: "Dat is Ansichtssache". Und da hat er recht. Am Niederrhein gibt es tatsächlich einige Höhenzüge und Inselberge, die dem Namen der Region widersprechen und selbst für eingefleischte Niederrhein-Kenner die eine oder andere Überraschung bereithalten.Dieser Reiseführer präsentiert Ausflüge zu den niederrheinischen Höhen, umgeben von großartiger Natur. Die Ausflugsziele sind in kurzer Zeit erreichbar und garantieren ein Freizeitvergnügen für die ganze Familie. Die Süchtelner Höhen, der Hülser Berg, die Bönninghardt, die Sonsbecker Schweiz und der Klever Berg sind nur einige der spannenden Orte, die Alltagsglück und Urlaubsfeeling ganz in der Nähe garantieren.Viele Tipps für Aktivitäten, wertvolle Hintergrundinformationen und Hinweise auf Sehenswürdigkeiten in der Nähe machen diesen reich bebilderten Ausflugsführer zu einem wichtigen Begleiter.
Strolling and striding through Britain's historyWalking is a simple and popular recreation, but one that comes freighted with meaning, social attitudes and value judgements. We are not simply left to walk if we feel like it - we are urged by various levels of government and opinion formers to walk more, in order to help the environment or improve our mental and physical health. What is recreational walking anyway? A walk can be a stroll round a small open space in a city or a long hike over demanding terrain in weather that blurs the boundary between exercise and endurance. The stroller and the strider can be the same person at different times, though most walkers have a preference for one end of the spectrum. Walking has appealed to all sorts of people throughout its long recorded history, and this volume delves into a rich variety of sources about walking from the 12th to the 20th century, including diaries, letters, memoirs, poems, fiction, government reports and newspapers.The more committed have not only enjoyed walking but have thought of themselves and been recognised by others as 'walkers', even though all manner of people have walked for recreation. Walking in a socially approved place, in the right sort of clothing, observing the decorum of the time, was a mark of respectability until quite recently. When large numbers of young people were able to take new opportunities to get to the countryside in the 1920s and 1930s, dressing and behaving in ways that expressed their own needs and desires, they were often seen as comic, deplorably urban, socially inferior and in the wrong place. Walkers of all kinds have frequently been regarded as 'in the wrong place'. In the countryside the walker is potentially in disputed territory, questioning one of the sacred tenets of post-enclosure Britain - the association of landownership with power, prestige and the foundations of the social order. This has led to the pattern of exclusion which marks our present relationship with the countryside. In response, an organised social movement to represent the interests and advance the causes of recreational walking claimed a place in the politics of landownership, which is once again in the public eye.

La ruta más antigua y concurrida del Viejo Continente es el Camino de Santiago de Compostela, que comenzó con el rey de Asturias Alfonso II, el Casto, quien realizó su primer recorrido desde Oviedo a Iria Flavia en el año 813 para conocer el sepulcro recién descubierto del apóstol Santiago. Desde entonces, innumerables peregrinos de todo el mundo han viajado por muchos caminos que terminan en la catedral de Santiago, donde se encuentran los restos del Apóstol. A partir de entonces, la cifra de caminantes de todo el mundo que viajan para visitar la catedral ha ido en aumento a través del tiempo. Para el año 2022, llegaron aproximadamente cuatrocientos treinta mil peregrinos a Santiago y el número de caminantes continúa en ascenso. Son varias las rutas jacobeas por donde llegan los peregrinos a Santiago para visitar la tumba del Apóstol. Sin embargo, las más concurridas son solo un puñado de ellas. Los caminos más populares son el Camino Primitivo, el Francés, el Finisterre y Muxía, el Norte, el Inglés, la Vía de la Plata, el Camino Mozárabe, el Sanabrés, el Portugués Central y el Portugués por la costa. Este último camino, tiene uno de sus comienzos en Lisboa, recorre seiscientos setenta y cuatro kilómetros y atraviesa los países de Portugal y España. Aunque desde Oporto hasta Santiago de Compostela el Camino es uno muy pintoresco de un recorrido manejable, desde Lisboa hasta Oporto la calzada es una de más reto y disciplina. Las largas etapas, aunque bonitas, con pocas sombras y escasas comodidades, pueden hacer que esta fase sea una de más grandes desafíos, penitencia, satisfacción y logros personales... Elementos indispensables en una verdadera peregrinación. Con la culminación de este Camino Portugués, por la costa, el caminante queda satisfecho de lograr el propósito de haber hecho una peregrinación transcendental, dejando gratos recuerdos y presuntuosas conquistas. Lo más importante no siempre es llegar a la meta, sino que los logros de cada etapa son tan o más importantes que la culminación del Camino mismo. Esta ronda que nace en Portugal ofrece al viajero la oportunidad de desarrollarse y conquistar un camino indomable.
