Camping is all about the outdoors, and what better way to enjoy the outdoors, than taking in an awe-inspiring hike, or a gentle stroll.
In this week's podcast, I go through 5 campsites with walks or hikes straight from your pitch. The walks range from challenging to easy strolls, so there is something for everyone.
