The Dolomites – Last day

So after 10 days it was time to be heading home, but time for one last day. We’d looked at various places to visit and walk but a couple of things were against us. Not all the bus routes had opened for the summer (unfortunately for us they opened the day we left), my feet…

The Dolomites – Vallunga

So having walked one of the best walk I’ve done, what to do next. Surely it would be a lesser walk, or maybe so,ething that doesn’t impress anywhere near as much as the previous day. Seceda was still very much in the memory and those ridgeline views imprinted on the brain. Prior to heading out…

The Dolomites – Seceda

This would be Day 8 of our holiday and looking at the weather a great one for heading up high. I’d prebooked a cable car to Col Raiser before heading to Italy, but the booking on this cable car was for one use across the whole summer period, so we could choose the best day.…

The Dolomites – Selva di Val Gardena

So we were on Day 7 of our holiday and it was time to move to somewhere new, the Dolomites. We grabbed a train north from Bologna station heading for Bolzano, where we would change to get a train further north to Ponte Gardena. As it was we worked out later on, there is a…

Steps Bridge, Clifford Bridge and Dunsford

So our previous walk had been to see the lovely Holwell Bluebells and a nice sunset, with warm sunshine up until it went dark. This walk still had the warm weather and the sun breaking through later in the walk, but it was mainly in the trees, so no suntans on this walk. The area…

Fan Frynych and Craig Cerrig Gleisiad

This was walk number 2 of our visit to the Brecons this year and this one was one I’d see recommended on lots of websites (a bit like walk 1 around the 4 Waterfalls). Again this was a short distance of barely 4 miles, we weren’t in a rush to get round so took our…

The 4 Waterfalls walk

Time for our second break away this year and our annual visit to the Brecon Beacons (Bannau Brycheiniog), which we always try to fit in in early Spring/before Easter time. The weather running up to this had been mixed, but we had at least had the odd dry day for across the month of March,…

Review of 2025 and looking to 2026

2025 felt like a long year and we’ve definitely been busy, with some walking, lots of work done setting up the new house and garden and some nice trips away as well. As with previous years I’ll start with the review and look later at what’s in store for 2026 with some exciting stuff planned.…

10 years of treksandtors

This post was something that I had thought about when I got that 10 year anniversary message earlier this year, I’d also passed 750,000 hits on the site as well, so I thought that I should do a celebration post to mark the event. Its true that I started in 2015, mainly out of a…

West Bexington to Abbotsbury

So I’ve completed a few walks over the years that have had plenty of insects, mainly butterflies, in the pictures. I make no excuses for the next three or four walks, where they will be inundated with butterfly pictures. This walk on the Dorset coast extends my coastal path efforts further east, pushing it towards…
