Kate Tyler

Hi, my name is Kate and I'm an outdoor enthusiast that specialises in Wild Camping, Bivvying and cycling in the UK National Parks. I love nothing more than setting up camp on top of a mountain and watching the sunset and never tire of sipping my coffee when the sun rises. I work as a buying manager for an outdoor store in Ambleside called The Epicentre and although I certainly wouldn't class myself as an expert, I have vast experience in the outdoors and have climbed in the UK and the Alps over many years. I've created this blog to share my stories in the hope I can inspire others to pursue their passions. I believe that nothing should hold you back, as for 20 years I have suffered chronic back pain and have had 3 operations! I would especially like to inspire people to get out in the mountains and prove it is possible, even if you're in pain like me. I would also like to share kit knoweledge and information you might find useful, if not, just enjoy the stories and the pictures! If you would like any advice on kit or how to go about wild camping then I would love to hear from you. If not I'll see you on the hills!
