Have your say...

I love to walk and walk and walk which I have been doing for 65 years as well as rock climbing, skiing, ice climbing, horse riding and dancing. My favourite UK walk is the Snowdon Horseshoe which I have done several times. I would like to win the book of walks in South Coast of England because I now live in Devon.
