In the latest instalment of Emma’s midlife crisis she goes on her 1st hike. Encounters some serious beauty and surrounds herself in nature. At times it’s that quiet and there are no people around that she feels like the only soul on the planet.
Rivington pike loop is a challenging hike, the elevation gains at times had me hearing my heart in my ears and was really out of breath. The steep walk down was a huge challenge for me as I hate heights at one time I wouldn’t of had the courage to take such a steep route down so I’m really proud of myself for that. Some very boggy areas on the moors to navigate, again a new experience for me. Proud of myself for choosing my 1st route to challenge me to my limits as well as emersing myself in so much beauty. #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthrecovery #ptsd #ptsdawareness #ptsdrecovery #complextrauma #complextraumarecovery #hike #1sthikeever #hikelife #hikeuk #rivingtonpike #winterhill #lancashiremoors #nature #beauty #peace #calm #quietthechaos

#RivingtonPike in #Bolton was looking epic the other week. Very cold though.

Needed a leg stretch this morning, so I did a circuit of #LeverPark from the Lower Barn, taking in the castle. Not a real castle, sadly, but Lord Leverhulme's idea of a garden folly.#RivingtonPike in the background #Rivington #Chorley #Lancashire #WestPennineMoors
