A Getting Started Guide: Geocaching
Let’s start by exploring what Geocaching is. Geocaching is a GPS assisted treasure hunting game. Millions of geocaches (containers) are hidden in specific locations all around the world, and can be hunted and found using a GPS enabled device to track their locations. Once you locate a Cache, you will find the surprise contents. Firstly you sign the logbook and then you choose to take the treasure and replace it with something else, for the next person to find, or to leave it behind, in the way it was before you found it.
A Getting Started Guide: Hiking
Hiking is a great sport because at its core, it is one of the most fundamental activities that humans are designed to do. Walking through a landscape is the simplest and purest way to experience any environment, and it’s exceptionally healthy for you as well. It is also for everybody. No person is ever too old or young, too unhealthy or too poor to go for a walk if they feel motivated and are able to do so.
Mountain biking in/at/around Scafell Pike
Mountain biking across the open scenery of the Lake District, past the silver tarns, over the rocky paths and rugged ground with the sun on your face and the wind on your back, is not an opportunity to be missed.
Hiking on a Budget
There is nothing better than getting out and exploring the great British outdoors on a summer’s afternoon, or going all out and escaping for a long weekend.
