A clifftop path beside the sea, Cornwall. Don’t get too close to that unfenced edge …
Walking is the only form of exercise I actually enjoy. And there are so many places to walk! From mountains to beaches, urban to outback, there’s a walk for everyone.
Old cemeteries can be fascinating places to walk. This is Kensal Green Cemetery, London.
A patch of bush in North Sydney.
A mountain meadow near Wengen, Switzerland.
Nothing like getting your feet wet in the surf! (Not to mention your shorts, if you’re not paying attention. I speak from experience.) Umina Beach, Australia.
Trekking in Bolivia. Granted, not something you’d do on a normal weekend!
Don’t forget your local park! Hyde Park is near my employer’s office, and on the days when I’m forced to go in (hiss boo!), I often walk here.
Hyde Park, Sydney.
Every day is a good day for a walk. Thanks for the inspiration.

It’s the only form of exercise I like too – but I also like to have a destination, or something to see on the way. The longer our restrictions go on, the more walking becomes just another chore. Having said that,I’m just sbout to go out in search of a new statue! Small pleasures.

This is a common theme among comments: the need for a destination or something new to see/discover. Good luck with the statue hunt!

Well done, you! A post soon, I trust? 😉 Or multiple posts, if it’s not finished?

Probably in the next Gallivanting post at the end of the month. There’s a lot of work going on along the (Roman) Antonine Wall, which is where this is, so possibly multiple posts when we’re allowed to go to look at anything outside Glasgow!

I googled the Wall — fascinating!

The only form of exercise I like. And I also need something to interest me which is why walks locally have become rather boring. I have probably photographed anything interesting a zillion times. Beach walks are nice and I always like a garden to potter around. Your botanic garden is a fabulous space. And free!

I had a lovely walk around the botanic garden on Saturday, as it happens. With the sun so low in the sky at this time of year, I got some nice shots of plants/flowers backlit by a stray ray of light though the trees. They glowed in their own little spotlight!

Thanks Cee! I had to rein myself in, I could have gone on and on with various walk locations.

I agree, there is something about walking that is good for the body, mind and spirit. And I also agree that our same old locations can get stale after all these lockdowns. I love your photos–very interesting and inspiring!

Thanks Joyce. I think the variety of my photos reflects that need for variety in walk locations, to keep things fresh.

What a nice variety of walks. I love to walk, even virtually to such beautiful venues. Your pictures have spectacular contrasts. 🙂
