2019 Muscat Marathon
Andrew takes us in an easy walk in the area of Wigan across the Bordane Wood. It’s a great place to walk with friends and dogs. The second walk is a beautiful walk in Perkshire in the north west of England and Scotland. Andrew climbs the Kenmore Hill with daughter and dogs and offers us a great scenic view on Loch Tay and surrounding hills.
