Walk Description:

From one hour WALX in your local country park to a half day in the hills, our Explorer WALX capture the variety of scenery, themes and types of WALX that suit your lifestyle. If you love WALX to the pub or WALX with the dog or simply WALX in wild locations we have them all! Whether long, short, tough or gentle we welcome all ages and all levels.

On weekends we like to have a moderate walk of around 4-5 miles and take around 2 hours. Sometimes we will end at a cafe or bring a coffee to enjoy with the others after the walk.

Poles are optional on an Open WALX - if you would like to try some poles please contact me in advance.
