• Thanks to previous advice I have booked onto the 3 day stretch of the South West Coast Path from Abbotsbury to Lulworth Cove.

    Next question: I want to set up an ebay search for some hiking poles. Don't think I need anything great, just want to buy something second hand rather than new. Does anyone have some brands I can put in the search box? I know nothing about hiking poles.

  • Decathlon (cheap, good), Leki (huge range, well known brand, spares readily available), Black Diamond (light, solid, not too pricey) That's as far as my research went when looking recently for my mum. She ended up with the 3-piece carbon jobbies from BD as her friend had the same and the handles were comfortable.

  • Black Diamond are good. Mine are ten years old still going strong
