Ben Dolphin: Life as a countryside ranger in Scotland

By Liv Bolton

Fancy switching up your life, moving to the countryside and becoming a ranger, like Ben Dolphin?

Ben is a countryside ranger in Scotland, an outdoors writer and blogger and he’s just finished his term as President of Ramblers Scotland.

He used to work for a bank but a few years ago he got chatting to a fellow walker on the top of a hill and that chance meeting changed the course of his life.

I wanted to find out how and why Ben moved from a corporate career to becoming a countryside ranger and what the job involves. I also wanted to hear what he learnt from hiking all over Scotland over three years with 54 Ramblers Scotland walking groups.
