There's no better way of blowing away the cobwebs than by heading out for a brisk, bracing walk. Do you prefer a dawdle along the Thames or a stride across the Pennines? Send us your suggestions for scenic strolls, more challenging hikes and great walking holidays - and, if you know a good pub for warming up or cooling down in afterwards, tell us about that as well.

Ghost Walks of Spice Island

Posted by Daytripper 4 August 2006

I took some friends on a ghost walk in Old Portsmouth. It was a fantastic mix of history (and there is loads in Portsmouth) and some scary gruesome stories. Actors were on hand to keep us on edge. The highlight was going into the Round Tower (which is not usually open to the public) - biggest shock of the night. Which I won't tell you about in case I ruin it for anyone else that may go. Great fun!

It started at the Square Tower, Old Portsmouth but what was good was that you could book your tickets in advance online. www.darkencounters.co.uk
