Walk catalogue available via Google Earth
Most of the guided walks currently available can now be accessed via Google Earth here. This site already runs off Google Spreadsheets, so piping the data to a KMZ file was easy.
Holidays
The baldie is on holiday till August 3, but other guides will be working normally.
Zombie walks
Fancy dress is not incompatible with rural hikes.
