BAKER’S DOZEN – Haslemere Circular / DAY HIKE - (Strenuous)
Details
HILLY FITNESS WALK
Autumn! The best season of the year, full of rustic colour & that distinct sound of crunching leaves under foot.
That brisk, crisp, slightly sharp smell we associate with autumn is actually the smell of leaves, trees, & plants dying & rotting. The memories we associate with the change of seasons are what make it pleasurable, & what will make this walk so memorable.
