A regular gear tester and editorial assistant to Outdoors Magic for over five years now, Jazz loves all things outdoor-related, including hiking, cycling, camping and canoeing. Her favourite place to explore is Ireland, particularly the trails of Fermanagh and Donegal. This year she's been exploring more of Scotland's hiking trails, particularly in the Outer Hebrides. Further afield, she's spent some time glacial walking in the Alps, she recently hiked up Mount Fuji in Japan, and hopes to do some bikepacking in Europe in 2026.
