Just as nature intended! Ready to embark on another barefoot adventure confident in my tough soles to carry me anywhere.

The cool earth coats the soles of my feet.

Earth covered soles = happy feet :)

Nature and bare feet - made for each other!

At the end of a long barefoot hike.

Enjoying barefoot life!

Barefoot and at home in nature. So healthy and so much fun!

Not as deep and cracked as some other barefooters heel pads but still proud to have them!

A this point my soles felt like thick leather - such an incredible feeling!

Taking a rest half way through a 15km hike. Soles felt great after enjoying the textures of the earth. Ready to move on...

I'm really proud of my tough soles! It feels great to be able to get out and explore the environment barefoot. I would encourage all to give barefoot hiking a try, it really is so much fun :)

Naturally tough and dirty. Love it when my soles end up looking like this, it really makes me feel connected to the earth. The textures of the earth really do feel amazing under bare soles.

Out of the woodland and on to the hills. The paths become rough with stone, more challenging to walk over but still no problem for tough soles!

Keeping soles tough over winter is a challenge!

Barefoot simplicity.

Earth stained tough soles. Touching the dry earth felt amazing. The little pieces of bark and small twigs made for an interesting texture. Love getting my soles this colour.

Walking down a deep channel cut by the stream. Nice to feel the mud and stones just below the surface of the water.

Glorious mud!

Sole stained black by the rich earth. Love it when my soles absorb the colour of the earth like this.

Just as nature intended! It's an incredible feeling to hike barefoot over many kilometers and to enjoy the touch of the earth beneath bare soles.

Nature has equipped us with the best fitting 'shoes' ever! Go and enjoy a barefoot adventure :)

Enjoying my barefoot freedom!

Stopping to enjoy the view!

Walking a crushed stone path. The dust firmly ingrained into my sole pads giving them this fantastic grey colouring!

Built by nature to enjoy nature!

Walking barefoot on the dry soil. At the end of the walk my feet were completely covered with dust.

Strong healthy feet make a firm foundation for the entire body.

Almost floating...

Building tough soles one step at a time! Loving my barefoot life :)

Exposed tree roots worn smooth by the passage of many booted walkers. Made a nice contrast in texture to the rough gravel!

Ready for another barefoot day!!

Enjoying the woodland mud!

Enjoying the texture of rough stones embedded in the surface of the path. Each barefoot hike contains a wide variety of surfaces to enjoy making each step a unique experience. All part of the fun of barefooting!!
