Walk Description:

This is a new walk to our programme. 

Poles are optional on this walk, you can even bring the dog if it is well behaved and stays on the lead when necessary. 

The Saturday hikes are walked at a moderate pace. The walks vary, but will usually be around 2 hours long. 

These are the perfect walk for anyone who works during the week and are busy setting up on a Saturday morning. 

For a Free walk use the code 1FREEWALX  

 

Walking Levels Explained

Easy – Up to 2.5 to 3 mph 

Ideal for casual walkers who enjoy conversation along the way. These walks are mostly flat, and any hills will be tackled slowly and gently.

Moderate – 3 to 3.5 mph

A steady pace that may lead to slightly heavier breathing, particularly on inclines. Suitable for those looking for a bit more of a workout.

Challenging – 3.5 to 4 mph

Suited for experienced walkers who enjoy pushing their pace. These walks may include longer durations (2+ hours), steeper inclines/declines, or uneven terrain. Though challenging, there will be moments to catch your breath, usually on flat or downhill sections.

Note: We never leave anyone behind. The walk leader makes sure everyone is looked after.
