    About This Trip

    This slow adventure leads you through wild forests, dramatic coastlines, wide open moorlands, and misty mountain landscapes. Days unfold at an unhurried pace - cycling quiet gravel roads, hiking along cliffside paths, paddling across calm waters, and discovering viewpoints that feel far from everything. Each day brings a new micro-adventure, shaped by weather, light, and the land itself. Evenings are spent in peaceful camps, surrounded by nature, where the noise fades and the rhythm slows. It’s a journey about moving gently, staying curious, and finding joy in small moments - where the road is just as meaningful as the destination.

    Bucket List:

    • Cycle through ancient forests

    • Walk along coastal cliff paths

    • Cross open moorlands under wide skies

    • Paddle across a quiet lake or bay

    • Hike to a misty mountain viewpoint

    • Wake up to fog drifting through the valley

    • End the day at a silent camp in nature

    Pack for flexibility.

    This route mixes gravel riding, hiking, and kayaking—so bring compact, weatherproof gear and plan your camps with changing conditions in mind. Wild weather can roll in fast, especially along the coast and in the moors, but it’s also what makes those misty mornings unforgettable.
