I have lots of fav walks, it depends on my mood really as I struggle with anxiety and going places on my own. I have got braver lately, and even discovered a new walk right near my house

More fantastic photos. Dani - the Outer Hebrides looks fabulous!

Milkmaid, it is really handy to have your own land to walk on isn't it? I don't tend to use our fields all that much for walking my dogs but do run the whole gang (inc the working gang) in them, and they are also handy to have when the weather is bad and for training. Your beach walks look lovely.

Where are your fave walks Hevvvur? You won't be too far away from Beacon Fell will you? I used to quite like walking up there, as well as Brock Bottoms.

Beacon Fell is lovely - but not at a weekend!!
Not been to Brock Bottoms with the boys, must try and venture out there one day!

I love St Annes Beach, as you can either stay on the beach, or walk right up to Blackpool.

Cuerden Valley Park is also great, only a 5 min drive, and lots of different kinds of walks there!

I'm right next to Worden Park (Leyland), which if you google it, it's bloody massive! Has a river, woodlands, or just lots of fields!

The new walk I found the other day is right next to the river, about 1/4 mile from my house, and it was so peaceful!

My fave walk is a place in Snowdonia called Llyn Crafnant. It's not too demanding but quite long and the scenery is simply stunning! My old boy Otis loves this walk and when I do this with my mates I just take him with me for some quality time with him.
There's a great view of the Snowdon Horseshoe from there and beautiful lakes. It's gorgeous!!

You need a GPS system Katie! I have a Garmin one which i've never used (cant work out how to use it and I dont do instruction manuals). I really should fathom it out.

Speaking of Fenton - I did a Fenton yesterday - only it was seagulls and a shallow lake.. (Told everyone he was up to something )

My favourite walks.. Hmmm,

Ulley Country park - although it is small now I've grown. I grew up around that lake, learned about wildlife, fishing, sailing and Springers..

RotherValley country park - used to cycle around there every sunday with Sadie - freedom and escape. Busy but peaceful.

Bestwood Country park & Mill lakes - separate they're boring, together they're not and I think you need a friend to make it interesting.. Plus they're on my doorstep.

Calverton Colliery - introduced to me by Leanne. One of the few places I can truly enjoy because Louie can be offlead the entire time.

No pictures sorry
