Walks With Olly

Lydford Gorge and the Waterfall

Wednesday 18th February 2026

After an unintended day of rest during my stay in Devon, I decided to travel a short distance back up the A386 and explore a walk starting at Lydford Gorge, which I’d not been to before.

Grenofen Circular

Monday 16th February 2026

This was my first walk on a trip to Devon back in November. Staying just outside of Horrabridge, I was definitely looking to do some walks on Dartmoor. But to start off my week, I could access this riverside circular walk from the rear gate of my chosen accommodation.

To Walk the Isle of Wight Coast Path

This was supposed to be the day in which I travelled down to Portsmouth and crossed the Solent on to the Isle of Wight. My plan, of course, was to walk the Isle of Wight Coast Path.

Wasdale Head? Sore Head

Having completed the Cumbria Way in four and a half days, my reward was to sleep in a real bed for the evening, before heading home sometime the following day. I’d treated myself to a night at the Wasdale Head Inn, with a plan to walk up Scafell Pike the very next day.
