Paul Besley is the author of multiple guidebooks and has been walking in the Peak District National Park his entire life. He's passionate about showing people that hillwalking isn't always about bagging the highest peaks or buying the most expensive kit – because there are often fascinating landscapes right on your doorstep that you can walk directly from home. Paul's a longtime contributor to Trail magazine and LFTO, and is one of our Peak District gurus.
