Huntington's Disease Association
I am not sponsored on my walks, but if you enjoy reading my journals please consider making a donation to the Huntington's Disease Association (to make an online donation, click on the white button at the bottom of their home page. I have chosen to support this particular charity because the family of one of my closest friends is afflicted with this incurable and hereditary disease.
http://www.trailjournals.com/ Home for hundreds of journals about the Appalachian Trail, Continental Divide Trail and Pacific Crest Trail in the USA, plus a few other trails as well. My favourite journalists on this site include:
http://discjirm.umcus.org/walks/Named/CoastWalk/index.html David Cotton's walk around the coast of Britain
www.bertuchi.co.uk I came across Tim Bertuchi's excellent site while researching the Hertfordshire Chain Walk. As well as that walk, he has journals for several others in the London Area, such as The London Loop and The Lea Valley Walk. I have met up with Tim a couple of times for long walks here in the Chilterns.
Wainwright Walks on the Lakeland Fells Dave and Edith Brown's photo journals of their walks in the Lake District and elsewhere.
Diaries of a Long Distance Walker George Tod's diaries of his Long Distance Walks, mainly in the north of England and Wales. He has done many walks that I'd love to do myself, and quite frankly I'm very jealous!
Other Walking sites

You may be wondering why I get so excited about seeing Red Kites on some of my walks. Perhaps the photos on these sites will explain the pleasure I get from seeing these amazing birds. These are just a few sites found in a brief 'Google' on the web.

http://www.redkites.net/index.html Another very informative site about Red Kites in the Chilterns
http://www.gigrin.co.uk/redkite.html A feeding station for Red Kites, with much useful factual information
Wild About Britain
A great site about British Wildlife - great photo galleries, useful discussion Forums. I've posted a few of my better photos there, and have used the site to help identify some of the wildflowers I've seen.

From this site you can order packs of leaflets, covering several of the walks described in my journals.
