About me

Why little hiker?

Because hiking is free, rewarding, challenging, endlessly diverse, beautiful & you can combine it with other lovely things:

  • Photography
  • Cooking & snacks
  • Camping
  • Wild swimming
  • Weekends away
  • Fitness / wellbeing
  • Unlimited outfit possibilites
  • Reasons to visit new places, countries ..

When I realised that almost everyone I know likes at least one of the things on the list.. I thought I could be a hiker and give them a vehicle to share their hobbies with me.

When did I become a little Hiker?

I started ‘hiking’ in 2024 and had none of the right things. I was sporting inappropriate footwear, no waterproofs, no map, no compass, no whistle.. I had a positive attitude and a tuna sandwich (not even my favourite sandwich) and two friends (much better than the sandwich).

👉 What I now pack

Since then I have climbed 20+ Munros* and discovered many bakeries, forests, lochs and pubs.
