Walk Description:

Join us for a lovely countryside walk combining peaceful surroundings, beautiful scenery and just enough of a climb to get the heart and lungs working.

We’ll start with a steady climb. It’s nothing too demanding, and you can take it at your own pace, with some fantastic views as your reward.

From there, we’ll enjoy quieter countryside with very little traffic, apart from the occasional farm vehicle. It’s a great opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle, enjoy the fresh air and chat as we walk.

Different walking abilities are welcome. We have ways of keeping everyone together while giving faster walkers opportunities to stretch their legs and push themselves a little more. You can enjoy the walk at a pace that works for you without worrying about holding anyone up.

A great walk for keeping active, enjoying the countryside and spending time with a friendly group.

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.
