Read time – 1 minute Liquid gold light tumbles through the hot, dry air. Andalucia is a land drenched in tawny yellow hues, amber and ochre blurred in a haze of heat.

Read time -3 minutes I have been walking for the past 37 years (I think I was 13 months when I started) but never realised that walking could be such good fun. First, some facts about me: I smoke, drink a bit, have a few extra pounds around my waist, never exercise and prefer to drive...

We set wildlife and photography guide Paul Goldstein a challenge: go out of his comfort zone on a trekking trip to Mount Toubkal, Morocco, the highest point in North Africa. It’s Africa, but not as I’m used to it. The rolling acacia-dotted plains filled with bounteous wildlife is how I classify this vast continent. Souks,...

Read time – 3 minutes We asked our local operator, Jim Thomson, why you should pick the Picos… View of the Picos de Europa The Spanish Pyrenees and the Sierra Nevada may be well known as destinations for walkers and climbers, but best known does not necessarily mean they’re the best.

Read time – 3 minutes Exodus’ Ian Langford gets more than he bargained for in Sri Lanka. In March I joined the hundreds of cricket fans descending into Colombo Airport, ready to explore ‘The Pearl in the Indian Ocean’ – the teardrop island of Sri Lanka.

Read time – 4 minutes Mara veteran, Paul Goldstein recalls his best herd crossing moment. ‘Remember Kijana’ Boniface murmured, giving me his pet name – young boy – for someone who was not only his boss but also ten years his senior, ‘the migration is not just about crossing rivers, it is about a movement...
