Walking

Walking is an important part of my life, both for work and recreation. I wrote on this subject in the UK and since coming to France have published ‘Walking and other activities in Finistere’ (the wildest part of Brittany), a guide to the Nantes-Brest canal and Walking the Brittany Coast (Vol 2 Morlaix to Benodet), which all sell very successfully around the world. Crossing Brittany is a narrative account of my walk along the full length of the Nantes-Brest Canal.

Walking Meditation

I’m getting more and more interested in the idea and practice of walking meditation. My first organised event is in May at Huelgoat, using a Neolithic standing stone as a focus for ‘infinity’ walking. Hoping to write something on this topic as I get more experience and insight.

Brittany Walks

I run Brittany Walks and regularly lead guided walks and historical outings for both groups and individuals, holiday-makers and residents of Brittany. Routes vary according to requests and the weather. For full details of dates and locations, see www.brittanywalks.com or email brittanywalks@orange.fr

The website www.brittanywalks.com is a resource for all those interested in walking in Brittany, from short circular routes to long-distance trekking. An information service is available through this website.
