About

Active Travel Review covers walking and cycling as ways to make everyday journeys. We look at routes, trip choices, carrying needs and habits, with an emphasis on decisions a reader can make for themselves.

What we cover

Our subjects include choosing between route options, planning a trip with several stops, carrying ordinary belongings and making room for walking or cycling in a busy week. We aim to explain the trade-offs clearly rather than pretend one approach suits every trip.

Who it is for

The publication is for curious readers who want to travel actively for errands, commutes or leisure, whether they already walk or cycle often or are considering a small change. Articles are written for general readers, not as a substitute for local travel information or specialist instruction.

How we approach it

We start with the trip itself: its purpose, distance, timing, route and what needs to come along. We favour useful explanations and manageable planning ideas, and make limits clear when a subject depends on local conditions or requires advice beyond our scope.
