My 5 year old is autistic. Amongst the many things he loves, being outdoors is probably the one he loves most. And this works incredibly well for me personally as I love it too. But the more I learn in my bid to help Liam thrive, the more I am led to believe that there really is a pinch of magic in being outside for autistic children in particular.
Glencoe Lochan was something of an unplanned little wander for me. And I’m so glad I went. The spectacular scenery and incredible effort to rewards ratio had be wandering why I’d never been before. So let me share it with you.
We’ve been to the adventure trail at Manley Mere (Cheshire) a few times now. Any environment where they can go wild and get muddy is a hit with my sons. But this remains a firm favourite. Here’s our review.
I do love me a bit of adrenaline. And Via Ferratas have so much appeal. But we’re actually quite short of Via Ferratas in the UK. With that said, I headed to the Lake District to try out Honister Slate Mine’s Via Ferrata Xtreme. Let’s dive in…
If you’re craving excitement, connection with nature, and a break from the same-old fitness routine, outdoor adventure sports might be exactly what you need. These
When it comes to teaching kids how to ride, a toddler balance bike can be a good start. But… Did you know that they’re also
Kinnoull Tower is perched on a cliff edge overlooking the River Tay and just by the side of the A90. I’d always fancied a wander up there, each time I’ve driven past. So finally, I went and did it. Here’s some photos and a little review of a small hike with BIG views.
Dovestone is a beautiful place in the Peak District’s Dark peak, nestled amongst the Saddleworth Hills. But there’s far more for hikers here than reservoir walks. Here’s a hiker’s guide to Dovestone Reservoir and the surrounding hills.
With winter on the way, we take a little look at how to ensure you stay warm whatever your outdoor adventure of choice.
I really miss my youngest being small enough to pop in the “bag” as I called it (or my toddler carrier), sling on my back and take him out for a walk. I just gave my hiking carrier away and he’s officially too big for any of the carriers now. But here are some of the ones I tried and my take on the best.
Geocaching is a family friendly adventuring activity that really encourages the kids to get out and about too. Let’s look at the basics of what’s involved.
Airsoft is an exciting way to get the adrenalin pumping and to have a fun day out with your mates. But there are more benefits to be had than that! Let’s take a look.
Kayaking with kids can be an amazing and memorable adventure for the whole family. But before you pick up a paddle for the first time with the family, here’s a few things you need to know.
No sooner are the Easter holidays over than it’s time to start planning for the Spring half term in the hopes we might even get some better weather. But whatever the weather does, we’ve got some great, low cost active ideas for fun activities with the kids.
I first visited Corrie Fee in August 2022 en route to the Munro summits of Mayar and Driesh. I was blown away so decided to go back just to see Corrie Fee alone with more time to explore. I did that in 2023.
Traditionalists may not like it! But personally, I don’t like to risk being stuck on a hill or mountain with a dead phone or head torch battery. So I like to carry a portable charging device (or 2, or 3) with me. Here are the best portable charging banks for hiking that I’ve used. (And I’ve used a lot, by the way).
We don’t post loads on social (shock, horror, we know). But we will try harder… promise!
