You can find bothies in the mountains or the wilderness, remote huts you can’t reserve, usually without electricity or other mod-cons, running water or even a marker on the map. You might have them to yourself or share them with strangers. And it’s there that you’ll meet Kat Hill – kettle on, feet up and pen out. Leading us on a gorgeous journey around the UK, Kat reveals the history of these wild mountain shelters and the people who visit them. With an historian’s insight and a rambler’s imagination, Kat lends fresh consideration to the concepts of nature, wilderness and escape.
