Welcome to the personal web site of Mark Horrell, and thank you for visiting. I'm a keen walker, mountaineer, and amateur photographer.

I've put together this web site to display holiday snaps and diaries from my UK and foreign travels to friends and family.

Areas I have visited include the Himalayas, Andes and several locations in Africa. I have also taken photographs much closer to home during regular day walks and trips to the Lake District, Scottish Highlands and North Wales. Travel Photographs >>

I usually keep a journal of events and amusing incidents which occur while I'm on my travels. If you want to see what I've been up to then visit this section. Travel Diaries >>

The unexpected death of my mother Elisabeth in November 2003, motivated me into putting together this online album of family photographs, past and present. Family Album >>
