Who's leading
Two leaders with decades on these fells between them — not a map and a hashtag.
Solna wasn't started in a boardroom. It was started on a hill, by two people who've spent their lives outdoors and watched what it does for the people they bring with them.
Co-founder · routes & navigation
Over twenty years hiking, trail running and open-water swimming across the Lakes and North Wales. Has completed all 214 Wainwrights. Plans the routes, knows the ground, and firmly believes every big day should end with hot food and a brew.
Co-founder · pace & safety
Experienced ultra runner and ultra-race marshal, with sixty-plus Wainwrights and twenty years on the hills. Looks after pace, safety and the people at the back — nobody gets left behind on a Solna walk.
Every route is planned in advance and chosen for the forecast and the group. Leaders carry first aid, navigation and emergency kit on every walk. Group sizes are capped. You get a kit list when you book, and if the weather turns we change the route or the day — not the standards.
Walks are graded easy, moderate or hard so you can pick the right one, and first-timers are pointed at the easy ones. If you're not sure, email hello@solna.uk and we'll tell you straight.
Three dates in the calendar. £15 a ticket, under-10s free, 25% to CALM.
