West Highland Way

Charlie Loram has never found being indoors easy. After breaking in his boots on the fells and crags of Snowdonia, northern England and the Scottish Highlands his nomadic tendencies took him to the Himalaya. For five years he wandered the high trails as guidebook writer, wilderness guide and modern-day pilgrim. His experiences there continue to inspire his attempts at living with simplicity and sustainability at home on Dartmoor, England. He is the author of the "Trekking in Ladakh," also from Trailblazer and now works as series editor for their expanding hiking series.
