RE: Mount Lofty

in #fitness7 years ago

Those look like some great trails. Last time I’ve been up any kind of mountain was in my teens. At best we had dirt trails created by horses from the rangers of the park taking the same route so many times that backpackers and other people just followed them enough to make dirt trails. At worse spider webs and using a compass lol.

I more than related to having to recover for a while. My health not best either. Couple of years back we were visiting some family and took there kid to the zoo. An entire day of walking (4-6 hours) just about did me in. Thankfully after I don’t know how many miles we got to other side of the park and buses took us back to where we were parked.

I love the zoo, but it is a full day, and it is quite a bit of walking, almost regardless of which zoo you go to. I love that Taronga is on a hillside and you start by catching a cable car up to the top and then the day is just wandering down and across the hillside. It still is a big day for me though, with a recovery day needed afterwards, but it's nicer than Perth or Adelaide which are all walking, Perth in a big loop with some side paths, Adelaide in a long narrow loop.

I grew up in the country, so paths were sometimes wherever we made them. Was fun, but I much prefer having something semi-permanent at least these days

Instead i love walking,too.I think walking is a good exercise program.

Walking is a great exercise program indeed. It was great for my rehabilitation too. I'd recommend walking for anyone that can
