Our favourite walking routes
With two energetic spaniels by our side, we're always on the lookout for new and exciting walking routes.
We love exploring different areas and sharing our experiences, so we've put together a collection of some of our favourite walks. We use AllTrails to plan our adventures, so you'll find a link to each route for more detailed information, along with our own personal insights and tips based on our time on the trail.
Just choose the county you'd like to explore below, and discover some paw-some walks!

The Peak District is known for its dog-friendly pubs and cafes, providing welcoming pit stops after a long walk. While some areas may have restrictions in place (particularly during lambing season or in areas with ground-nesting birds), much of the park is open to dogs
North Wales, with its dramatic coastline, rugged mountains, and lush valleys, is a truly spectacular place to explore with your dog. North Wales is generally very dog-friendly, with many pubs and cafes welcoming four-legged visitors.
