Listen Later

It has been busy 2019 so far for the Walk Fife team.

Walk Fife’s Sean takes a break to update us in episode 40 of our podcast.

To kick things off Sean lets us know about the 2019 workshop programme and what months the workshops are running and what you can expect from each. Also revealed are our plans for some discounted workshops in partnership with a well established outdoors school.

Winter Safety Skills

After the tragic news last week of the deaths of two highly experience climbers on Ben Hope, the community have asked what can be done to improve safety skills among the walkers of Walk Fife. Sean suggests some sources where we can learn more about how we can keep ourselves safe while still enjoying the outdoors.

We have one Alpkit Qark rechargeable head torch to give away to one lucky winner. The Qark is a compact head torch that is perfect for walking safely in the darker months of winter. Sean shares the question the answer to which can win you one of these great head torches.
