Award-Winning Writing and Breathtaking Photography

Unlike many other outdoors magazines, Country Walking Magazine brings the UK’s most inspiring landscapes right to your living room with its exceptional photography and engaging stories. From rolling hills and coastal paths to hidden woodland trails, the magazine paints a vivid picture of the countryside, encouraging readers to get outside and experience it for themselves.

The writing is just as engaging, with features that mix personal walking stories, expert insights, and cultural reflections. It’s no wonder this title is a favourite among lovers of hobbies & leisure magazines.

Gear Guides That Really Work

Choosing the right walking gear can be overwhelming, but Country Walking Magazine takes the guesswork out of it with its no-nonsense product testing. Every issue features thorough reviews of boots, jackets, backpacks, and walking accessories. These reviews are written by walkers, for walkers—so the focus is always on what works in real-world conditions.

Whether you’re upgrading your kit or looking for budget-friendly options, the gear guides are practical, honest and always helpful.

Exclusive Columns and Celebrity Contributors

Each issue of Country Walking Magazine includes a column from BBC Radio star and lifelong walker Stuart Maconie, bringing a unique voice and touch of humour to the pages. Guest columnists also offer fresh perspectives and personal experiences that resonate with walkers of all levels.

On top of this, the magazine regularly features interviews with well-known names such as Julia Bradbury, Clare Balding, and David Dimbleby. Their insights and stories help bridge the gap between everyday walking and wider culture.

More Than Just Walking—A Lifestyle

Country Walking Magazine isn’t just about putting one foot in front of the other. It’s a full lifestyle publication for people who love the outdoors. Each issue includes overseas walking holiday ideas, thought-provoking features, and fun elements like the Walkers’ Tea Break page, complete with word games and a prize crossword.

As the proud home of the #Walk1000Miles annual challenge, the magazine also connects readers in a supportive and inspiring walking community. This challenge encourages walkers of all abilities to clock up 1,000 miles in a year—a goal made achievable through the magazine’s motivating tone and practical guidance.
