About Us
Life is better when you walk into the hills.
​
Hi, I’m Aaron.

​
Somewhere along the way, life gets busy.
Work piles up. Screens take over. Days blur together.
And without realising it, we lose something.
Fresh air.
Space to think.
The quiet beauty of the outdoors.
​
A few years ago I started rediscovering the hills of Scotland again — and something changed.
The more I walked, the more I realised the mountains don’t just challenge your legs…
They change your perspective.
​
Get On Yer Hike is where I share that journey.
​
Why I Started This
​
This isn’t about becoming an elite mountaineer.
It’s about rediscovering something simple and powerful:
​
Walking in wild places is good for the soul.​​
​​​
​
​
​
​
​
​
The hills clear your mind.
They slow your thoughts.
They remind you life is bigger than deadlines and notifications.
Some of my best conversations have happened on a trail.
Some of my clearest thinking has happened halfway up a mountain in the rain.
And some of the best friendships start with the simple invitation:
“Fancy a hike?”
​
What You'll Find Here
​
Stories from the Hills
Adventures across Scotland’s mountains, forests and hidden trails.
Lessons from the Trail
Things I’ve learned about hiking, gear, navigation and endurance.
Reflections Along the Way
Because the hills often teach more than just how to climb them.
​
Occasional Group Hikes

From time to time I’ll invite others to join a hike. No pressure. Just good people and great scenery.
This Is Not a Club
You don’t need to join anything.
You don’t need special gear.
You don’t need to be super fit.
If you like the outdoors — or even just feel curious about it — you’re already welcome here.
Some people simply follow the journey online.
Some find inspiration to explore their own local hills.
And occasionally a few of us head out together for a hike somewhere in Scotland.
​
A Simple Invitation
​
If life has felt a bit crowded lately…
If you’ve been staring at screens too long…
If you feel the pull of fresh air and open space…
Maybe it’s time.
Time to step outside.
Time to breathe again.
Time to Get On Yer Hike.
Follow the Journey
​
Or just start exploring the adventures.
​
GET ON YER HIKE
​
One step at a time.
