A little bit more about me and Roam with Ross
Hey, I’m Ross
Welcome to Roam with Ross — your trusted guide to epic road trips, wild hikes, and unforgettable adventures across the UK and beyond. I’m Ross, the face behind the blog, a long-time hiking obsessive, and full-time believer that life’s too short to sit still.
Over the years, I’ve explored everything from the fells of the Lake District to the rugged roads of the Scottish Highlands, summited Kilimanjaro, and wild camped on beaches in New Zealand. What started as a way to document my hikes has grown into a hub for like-minded adventurers who want to travel deeper, roam smarter, and escape the obvious.
Here, you’ll find detailed travel guides, scenic road trip routes, personal gear lists, boutique stay recommendations, and practical tips for people who actually do this stuff — whether it’s hiking Helvellyn or driving the NC500 in a campervan.
I partner with independent brands, local tour providers, and amazing stays to create curated itineraries and travel experiences worth your time. Everything I recommend is something I’ve tried myself.
Roam with Ross is all about helping you discover incredible places and build your own story-worthy adventures, whether you’re planning a weekend in the Peaks or the road trip of a lifetime around New Zealand.

My mission
My mission is to get more people outdoors and having their own epic adventures. Whether it’s hiking a mountain, road-tripping through Scotland, or wild camping under the stars, I want to make it easier for you to explore, roam, and experience the world in a real and unforgettable way.
Everything I share is based on lived experience — honest travel guides, scenic routes, gear I actually use, and tips that help you spend less time planning and more time out there doing it.
