Walk Description:
Come and join us on Sunday mornings for a social longer Nordic WALX that is suitable for walkers who can manage an gentle/average speed with plenty of breaks thrown in to recover, have a drink, admire the views, have a chat etc.
There may be some hills but most people should be able to tackle them.
This Nordic WALX is open which means that anyone can come along (you must register and book first) to see what it's all about and you may borrow some poles if you wish.
Please bring a drink and snack in a small backpack or bumbag, not a shoulder bag.
This walk is mainly on gravel tracks with some grass and the possibility of mud. There are a couple of fairly steep hills, taking in heathland, woodland and paddocks with far-reaching fabulous views. We are quite likely to meet ponies, cows, possibly donkeys and deer.
PLEASE NOTE:
There are no gates or stiles but there is a very real possibility of encountering New Forest grazing livestock such as ponies, cows and donkeys. The very nature of the New Forest terrain means that springs pop up in unexpected places after heavy rain so please make sure you wear waterproof footwear (no wellies)! Dogs are welcome but there will be stretches where they must be on a lead so please make sure you are confident and safe with dogs on a lead when using poles and around livestock. Please make sure you have filled in a dog disclaimer form available from Janet before bringing your pooch.
