​One of the things we all look for when walking in the hills is peace and tranquillity. Often this can be a challenge especially in the busier parts of the National Parks and on the sunny days, but there are some places where you can go and just drop a little off the paths and experience the serenity you strive for.

It is always in the back of your mind that you are somewhere where people lost their lives and that can bring a solemnity to the situation. But it can also make you look up and see.
