Ten Of My Favourite Long Distance Walks In The Guardian

Makalu

I've described ten favourite long-distance walks for The Guardian. The walks include Makalu Base Camp, the Scottish Watershed, and the GR20 in Corsica. You can read the piece here.

    Needs updating Chris. The Corsica cirque de la solitude was badly damaged by storms early last year, and people died. Hikers were told not to go there, an alternative route was devised, which may become a permanent change to the GR20.

    We had an "interesting" time at the Cirque de la Solitude in 2013. One of the chain fixings had pulled free at the stream crossing and as it was early May there was a film of ice ....such fun!!
