Welcome to Our Spectrum Adventures!
Hi, I'm Ian, & this is my wife Sarah and our daughter Eve.
About us
I'm an outdoor writer and hiker living in the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park in Scotland, with a passion for the outdoors, particularly hiking! I started this blog in 2022 to share our journey as we navigate life spent exploring the Great British outdoors.
Here, you’ll find actionable hints and tips on everything outdoors, including ideas, inspiration and honest stories about our adventures. If you’re trying to get the best out of life without breaking the bank, hurting yourself or just need some good-humoured and pragmatic reading, you’ve come to the right place.
