Circuit hikes and trails

A circuit hike is a hiking trail that forms a loop, taking you on a complete journey around a particular area and bringing you back to your starting point without having to retrace your steps. It’s like walking around the circumference of a circle, rather than going back and forth on a straight line or leading you on an adventure to a new destination.

Can you support me?

I've built this site as a free community service as I'm passionate about the outdoors and getting people out into nature, safely and with confidence. This is a hobby and not a business so I don't have the the financial backing that companies do, so any financial support you can offer is really appreciated.
