Welcome To My Walking Blog

 

I have always enjoyed walking as staying, as I do, in the beautiful village of Aberlour, Speyside I am spoiled for choice of lovely walks ranging from a couple of kilometres in and around the village to the 100+ km Speyside Way

What I want to do is document my walks during 2012 providing details of distance, time taken, detailed map and walk notes.

If you haven’t already heard of Walk Highlands I would highly recommend the website at http://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/ You will find details of hundreds of walks there as well as printable maps and Quo file.

Quo is the free mapping software which allows you to plan your own routes as well as downloading pre-formatted walks (for example those on the Walk Highlands website. The Quo software can be downloaded for free HERE

One further handy piece of kit is the free MyTracks apps which can be downloade for your Android Phone from Android Market HERE or simply search for mytracks in Android Market

I welcome any feedback you may have either by commenting below or by email to norlaggan@gmail.com
