Stuck on Hiking, the origin story.

Most people are familiar with the Wainwrights, the iconic 214 Lakeland fell walks that traverse the stunning landscapes of the Lake District. Completing all 214 is not just a goal; it’s a remarkable achievement that embodies the spirit of adventure. As passionate weekend warriors, we often find ourselves yearning for the Lakes, but living a couple of hours away makes it challenging to visit more than five times a year.


Why the Marilyns?

During my quest for new hiking challenges, I stumbled upon the Marilyns, a collection of peaks that piqued my interest. Named with a clever nod to the Scottish Munros, the 52 Marilyns scattered throughout the Lake District offer a perfect blend of aspiration and attainability. I compiled a list of these peaks in height order, and as a designer, the idea of creating a vibrant sticker poster to serve as a physical 'tick-list' was a natural fit. This poster is more than just a checklist; it’s a visual celebration of our hiking adventures!


What's in a sticker?

One of the most delightful aspects of this poster is its ability to engage and motivate, especially with kids. There’s something magical about the thrill of placing a sticker on the poster after conquering a peak—it's a tangible reward that encourages exploration and fosters a love for the outdoors. Imagine your children’s excitement as they track their progress, turning each hike into a memorable family adventure!


You want one too?

Initially, I thought my family hiking tracker was just a personal project, but the enthusiastic feedback from friends who wanted copies for themselves and as gifts sparked the idea to share it with a wider audience. After much encouragement, I took the leap and launched our little shop, featuring the '52 Marilyns of the Lake District' and later, The Welsh 3,000's. Keep an eye out for our upcoming poster showcasing the Peak District!
