Just in time for the #BankHoliday weekend… woodlands across #Sheffield are starting to turn into carpets of blue! 💙🔔
Woolley Wood has one of the most impressive bluebell displays in city (and beyond) as these shots by @SallyOHal captured last year show!
2024 is the tenth anniversary of the @SouthYorksWay - the two interlinked long distance trails I devised to celebrate the 40th anniversary of South Yorkshire as a county.
So, I'll finally be writing a guidebook to the two trails, which will be available in late 2024!
With the return of the Walks Around Britain Podcast in November, here's a reminder of some of the more recent editions you might have missed...

Have you walked Britain's first long-distance path? 😍
#FootpathFriday#WalkYourWay
The #PennineWay was the brainchild of former @ramblersgb Secretary, Tom Stephenson & described as a walk everyone should do once in their lifetime! 🤗

I went to school in Sheffield & started hiking from this brilliant Outdoor City. 61% of Sheffield is green space & a 3rd lies within the Peak District national park!Here's a handful of lovely walks ⬇️ #walks#sheffield#ad#green@TOGWalks@SheffCouncil
It's #tramlines in Sheffield this weekend...
....which is a perfect time to look again at the last weeks of the original Sheffield trams (see what I did there?) back in 1960 - some 61 years ago.
Globally 30% of land must be protected for nature's recovery. This will allow carbon-sucking habitats like forests and peat bogs to thrive and help mitigate rising temperatures.
Not only will this keep carbon in the ground, but it will also save species from extinction. 🌱
⚠️Cortonwood, #Barnsley⚠️
The public bridleway between Wath Road at Brampton and Cortonwood Retail Park will be temporarily closed from the 24th August-3rd September 2021 to allow for the safe installation of noise barrier fencing along the TPT next to Wath Road

Happy 60th Birthday to #Sheffield’s iconic brutalist landmark & the largest Grade II listed building in Europe- PARK HILL! 🏙🥳
The world-renowned ‘Streets in the Sky’ may be the marmite of the city’s architecture- but Sheffield’s skyline would not be the same without it! ❤️🧡💛
The @nationaltrust is well led, immensely popular, loved by its supporters and plays an important role in our national life. It will continue to do so into the future. Unlike the drivel-spouting @Telegraph which seems to have a nasty anti NT agenda.
"Heaving off my backpack & settling down for lunch is one of the real pleasures of hiking with @RamblersGB. There’s a contented silence that descends as we all tuck in, knowing that we’ve worked up an appetite by exploring several miles of beautiful countryside."

Tomorrow marks 89 years since the Kinder Scout Trespass, a landmark protest on the route to improving access to the countryside for all.
The Ramblers were founded soon after & we've been campaigning for & improving access rights in many ways ever since 🙌
Your ducks will NEVER be in a row.
There will always be something else to do, another task on the list, you will never finish, but that’s OK.
Just prioritise the important stuff and focus on making progress.
Happy Friday! #thehappymeproject
