Rachel takes care of all the organisation and route finding enabling participants to safely enjoy their walk. She is also a qualified trainer offering National Navigation Award Scheme Bronze and Silver days to participants who want to gain experience of planning and navigating for themselves. Rachel also offers more challenging trek training walks for participants who want to gain fitness and stamina to undertake a longer trek such as Everest Base Camp or Kilimanjaro. Rachel also leads longer day challenge walks in the Peak District such as the White Peak Challenge walk and the Edale Skyline.

As Rachel’s background was in primary school teaching she welcomes children along on some suitable walks ( accompanied by an adult ) and is able to tailor make the day to meet the needs of the child if required. Rachel offers private guiding days where the participant chooses an area of interest and then a walk is devised together.
