“Dynamic agers everywhere should read this book ... and get moving!” "This is a well-written, concise, and smart guide for anyone preparing to walk or hike. Short chapters lead the reader through the reasons for walking, doing longer day hikes, and planning for safe long-distance backpacking. This is essential reading for women over 50 seeking a more active lifestyle." "Dami Roelse's love for the simple act of walking will inspire you to set out—for a stroll, a hike, or maybe even a hiking journey. Blending anecdotes, trail musings, and step-by-step instructions, her book is a glorious and effective invitation to join her."
