• Hiking: The Mountains are Still There

  

  This is more of a note to myself than anything else. A reminder that the mountains are still there.

• Hiking: Kasugai’s Three Peaks

  

  Stand pretty much anywhere in Nagoya with an elevated view and look northeast. You’ll see a small mountain range slowly being eaten away by a quarry.

• Hiking: Kumano Kodo and Owase Hiking Trail

  

  I won’t pretend to know what I’m talking about when writing about the Kumano Kodo (熊野古道) so I’ll keep this post short and suggest you go over to Craig Mod’s wonderful www.walkkumano.com for all the info you need (and buy the book). You’ll be in good hands. I cycled past this mountain pass on the…

• Photography: Favourite ‘Adventure’ Photos of 2019

  

  I began to understand that if I wished to continue chasing adventure, then just repeating the same types of expedition was not the way to go. The Question I needed to ask was no longer, ‘how can I keep cycling around the world?’ The question now was, ‘how can I keep living adventurously?’ Alastair Humphreys…

• Hiking: Shakagadake・釈迦ヶ岳

  

  First hike of the year. Shakagadake (釈迦ヶ岳) next to Mt. Gozaisho in Mie prefecture was challenging in places with a couple of almost vertical accents and loose rocks but well worth it.

• Photography: Kushiro Shitsugen・釧路湿原

  

  Whenever I’m alone in the mountains, whether it’s cycling, hiking, camping, or just taking photos, there are times when I stop what I’m doing, take a long look around and contemplate the existence of places like Tokyo, Osaka, or Nagoya. Stood in the middle of nowhere it often amazes me that they actually exist. Everyone…

• Photography: Camera Gear for Hikes and Bicycle Rides

  

  13th October, 2021I’ve since updated my camera to a Panasonic LUMIX S5. You can read about it here. I previously wrote about the camera gear I use when bike packing here but since the outdoor activities I do in Japan have changed over the last couple of years I thought it might be a good…
