Hi, I’m John Davidson and I am a journalist based in Inverness in the Highlands of Scotland. I’ve worked in national and local newspapers in Scotland and had outdoors work published in a number of publications.
I am happy to consider commissions for work related to cycling, mountain biking, walking or mountaineering. To contact me regarding my work, please use the Contact page.

Active Outdoors
I write a popular column called Active Outdoors for the Inverness Courier which includes suggested bike and walking routes around Inverness and the Highlands.
Wild Walks - TGO Magazine
I have written a number of ‘Wild Walks’ for The Great Outdoors magazine. These are a regular series of high-level mountain routes published each month from different parts of the UK. My own contribution to the series comes primarily from Scotland, and mostly from the Highlands. It involves a write-up of the day on the mountains, along with a route plan and other information about the walk, plus a selection of photographs from the route.
Kilimanjaro - The Herald Magazine
I wrote a full-page feature for The Herald Magazine (25 August 2007) on my experiences of an organised trek up Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania.
Sustrans
I am a volunteer for the sustainable transport charity Sustrans, which involves helping to look after the National Cycle Network in the Inverness and Moray area. I have also written articles for various Sustrans publications, including selected routes in the area.
