A unique hill-walking guide with a culminative ascent of the height of Everest, written in Peter Owen Jones` unique descriptive style. Scaling the peaks of Everest, the world`s highest mountain, is the ultimate physical and mental challenge that the human race can aspire to. But as it takes years of preparation and a minimum of £25,000 to achieve, it remains out of reach to most of us. This book allows ordinary people to embark on their own personal `Everest` without leaving England`s green and pleasant land. Ascending hills of varying sizes whose ascents add up to the same height as Mount Everest, celebrity vicar and countryman Peter Owen Jones guides you on a road trip covering hand-picked hill-climbs in different parts of England. The climbs can be done mindfully over a limited period - 12 days is the suggested timescale - or as fast as possible, thus creating a physical challenge rather like the Three Peaks. The climbs could also be undertaken separately over longer periods of time and used as opportunities for mindfulness and quiet meditation under Peter`s expert spiritual guidance. The journey takes in sacred places found on coastal cliff walks, ancient holy sites, tors, peaks, mountains and the highest church in England.Peter Owen Jones is a celebrity Anglican vicar and established author who has fronted several television documentary series on walking and spirituality: Extreme Pilgrim (BBC2, 2008) Around the World in 80 Faiths (BBC2, 2009) How to Live a Simple Life (BBC2, 2010) South Downs: England`s Mountains Green (BBC4, 2017).
