A great way to start the week is with a Nordic Adventure Walk on a Monday or Wednesday in and around Stanmore and Harrow Weald. Get ready for the weekend with a stimulating Saturday morning walk around Stanmore Country Park. Or join us on a Sunday morning for a longer, faster paced walk in Ruislip Woods.

These are intermediate walks, usually lasting one hour and will include some hill work. For those new to the area you`ll be surprised at the fantastic views over London that you get from Wood Farm Viewpoint, the hidden lakes in PearsWood and Bentley Priory and the seemigly endless trails through woods which change with the seasons.

Walkabout Wednesdays give the opportunity to travel a little further into neighbouring boroughs, or out along the Metropolitan line into the Chess Valley. Saturdays we`re always in the Stanmore Country Park, but we never tire of it as there are such a variety of trails to explore. 

COVID Safety Steps

We will continue to be cautious at the beginning and ending of our walks and encourage walkers throughout to maintain social distancing as best we can at all times.

NB we will not be hirning poles during the current pandemic to prevent transmission of the virus.
