Fife is finally blooming into life and colour and once again the paths and trails are busy with walkers.

GPS workshop

The response from the Fife Walking Community to our latest free workshop has been incredible. We received nearly 900 requests for a place on our Beginners guide to using a GPS device workshop. We were completely taken aback by the huge number of emails and messages that we also received asking if we could run this workshop a few more times this year.

A flying visit

Sean was recently was surprised by a bird of prey having it breakfast in his garden. This visitor to the garden has taken up residence in the local area and has been a visitor to his garden over the past month. Not being to well versed in birds, Sean took to twitter and Facebook to ask for help identifying the bird.

Listener questions

Sean answers some of the questions sent in by listeners. Topics for this episode include nordic walking, when to replace your walking shoes and should you use isles in your walking boots.

Getting social

The Walk Fife team are very active online but sometimes we aren’t quite up to speed with some aspects of the numerous social networks. Sean explains why we have ben slow to reply to messages sent to us through instagram and google+. If you would like to chat with the team online then twitter and Facebook are the best options if you would like a fast reply.
