Trail Magazine

I have been reading this magazine for over 2 years now and i still love it the gear surveys they carry out are excellent i have have brought some of my kit using there reviews ! they have regular story's of walks undertaken and have good articles on subjects like camping overnight while on multi day walks - walking up mountains in the winter etc...

They have each month a number of walks throughout the country which are great and very detailed and have all the info for gps units etc..

My only gripe if i were to be asked is that i live in surrey and most of the walks are for lake district/wales etc only ever seen 1 walk in the south downs which is our newest national park would love to see more walks in the south but well worth the money i look forward to it every month!!

Trail magazine has a very attractive layout, equipment reviews, suggested walks. I think it's a nice practical and inspirational magazine, I love the presentation. They do comparative tests on all types of walking clothing and equipment. There are pages of walking routes with pictures and maps and there's plenty more to interest most walkers. Most enjoyable articles I can recall were one about doing Striding Edge in winter and a complete issue dedicated to lightweight hiking. My favourite walking magazine.
