___IN__(2) fact, most people’s idea of a hike consists __IN___(3) walking
down winding countryside paths, climbing mountains or strolling along a
deserted beach.

___AS__(5) good as the countryside, or maybe even more so. According to
the English novelist Will Self, “if you walk in the town or city where you

what happened to me last time we set __OFF___(7) for a nice country walk”.
