Andrew Bowden

Andrew Bowden was born and raised in Manchester and spent much of his early years being dragged around Etherow Country Park a few miles from his parents house. After abandoning hiking in his teenage years in favour of spending far too much time in front of computer games, he returned to the hills after moving to London after university.

Since then he has walked far more trails and fells than he'd like to admit to.

Somehow he even finds the time to run a walking based website called Rambling Man (www.ramblingman.org.uk)
