A wonderful relaxing experience in the Cheshire sunshine

So easy to join
Julia has the route and timings all sorted. Lovely to explore, hitherto, unexplored areas in the locality. Been on a few walks and people have all been welcoming and friendly.

Great day walking in the Peaks
Great day walking in the Peaks last weekend guided by John Figiel. It was a beautiful day & Johns local knowledge of the area was essential especially when avoiding the more crowded routes. He was friendly and professional and made the experience all the more enjoyable. Highly recommended.

Brilliant...
Really great walk with a mixture of challenging ascending hills and more flat. Beautiful panoramic scenery.

Really enjoyed the recent sunset walk
Really enjoyed the recent sunset walk around Alderley Edge. A great group of people, very relaxed, and lovely food afterwards. Everybody was very welcoming so no need to worry if you want to attend on your own.

Very professional and ran everything like clockwork
I found this company on Facebook and booked onto one of the guided walks. The website was really easy to use. They kept in touch with me regularly by email about the details for the evening, the cost was so reasonable as we got plenty of food and a glass of wine in a restaurant included in the price.

I had a great MTB tour with Richard
The bikes he lent us were fantastic, perfect for the activity, and enabled us to try out new skills confidently. Richard is very knowledgeable and experienced in Mountain Biking and took us on a great route that provided challenges, views, and the perfect coffee shop! I would highly recommend booking a tour/lesson with Richard.

A beautiful trail run through Macclesfield Forest
Perfect pacing to gently push me with encouragement but eased pace uphill. Julia took away the stress of mapping a route and made sure we stopped occasionally to enjoy the stunning views. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely recommend a guided trail run.
