Talk:Walking in the United Kingdom

Nicholas van Hoogstraten
In the article is a reference to Nicholas van Hoogstraten regarding conflicts between walkers and landowners, but there is nothing fitting on that page. It would be good to include the referred event there. -- Tomdo08 (talk) 17:35, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

Most popular
I'm slightly troubled by this assertion. I have always understood angling to be the most popular? The link used for a citation did not work for me today. Since I'm a walker and not an angler, I'm making no changes. 92.23.145.26 (talk) 11:35, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

Hiking, etc. Merge?
An article also exists for hiking. Is there a need for this division on national lines? Recently a section on the history of walking in Britain was added to the hiking page. A further separate article exists for hill walking. Is there a case for for merging here? -- and there are different possibilities. There is in addition an article on walking tours which might be merged with hiking.Rwood128 (talk) 13:03, 17 December 2013 (UTC)


 * I have suggested on the Hillwalking page that it be merged into this page. Perhaps, later, a merge with Hiking could be made?. Rwood128 (talk) 14:40, 24 July 2014 (UTC)

Scrambling
This section is surely too long, especially as a separate article on scrambling exists? Furthermore it offers advice and route description, which isn't appropriate for an encyclopaedia. I propose that it should be pruned and incorporated into the main Hillwalking section. Any objections? Rwood128 (talk) 15:54, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

Usual Anglocentric trash
Why is it whenever Scottish and Welsh content is merged into a UK article it goes walking? Not good enough. Either split the articles or get rid of the Anglocentric bias. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:4C8:141C:D846:1:1:78EE:DB1B (talk) 20:23, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
