Why We Walk


“He who is indeed of the brotherhood does not voyage in quest of the picturesque, but of certain jolly humours— of the hope and spirit with which the march begins at morning, and the peace and spiritual repletion of the evening’s rest. He cannot tell whether he puts his knap- sack on, or takes it off, with more delight.”


‘Walking Tours’ by Robert Louis Stevenson S 2


o you’re thinking about taking a walk with The Wayfarers – in England, perhaps, or France or New Zealand – and a friend asks you, “A walk? Why use your precious vacation time to go on a walk? You can do that at home.”


Well, the short answer is that a walk – and by walking we mean six or seven days of daily perambulation -- is the ideal way to truly experience the world. A walk awakens your senses – you smell the roses, you hear the birds, you see the world in slow motion. There is no better way to enjoy fresh air and a fresh culture, to soak in the dramatic new sights and sounds that you’d miss by plane, train, automobile or even bicycle.
