Based in Manchester, his spare time is spent in the great outdoors, enjoying all mountain-based activities from walking and scrambling to via ferrata, climbing, and winter mountaineering.

Whether he’s tackling a high-altitude climb like Mera Peak, hiking the dramatic Cares Gorge in Spain’s Picos de Europa, or exploring the spectacular Dolomites, his writing is built on a foundation of real-world knowledge and a passion for being on the move.
He has completed numerous mountaineering courses, and his expertise in hiking, climbing, and navigation shines through in every guide he writes.
Beyond the mountains, Paul is an avid cook and foodie who loves to explore local cuisine on his travels, from food tours in Granada to searching for the perfect brunch.
