Louis D. Hall is a writer, public speaker, and founder of The Big Hoof, a Scottish-registered charity harnessing the power of long-distance horse journeys to champion mental health and wellbeing. Growing up in rural Scotland, Louis discovered his calling for epic travel early on. At 18, he trekked to northern Mongolia in search of the nomadic Tsaatan tribe, where his first encounters with horses ignited a lifelong affinity for their "connecting powers." This spark led to bolder quests: a solo 1,147-mile ride from Scotland to England's southern tip, raising £38,000 for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust; and a grueling 111-day odyssey across Europe with his Arabian mare Sasha, blazing a pioneering trail through the snow-swept Ligurian Alps, storm-lashed Pyrenees, and partisan-haunted paths to Cape Finisterre, Spain—"the end of the land."
