Ambling

Overview: Modest walking activity of about 2 miles for about 60 minutes. The walking speed varies according to who is in the group but we stop frequently to allow the group to stay together.
We will try to plan walks where there will be a short loop (going back to the car park) and an extension for those who want to walk a little further.
Members are required to get themselves to the start point (mainly within a 2/3 mile radius of Ash Wharf) and to car share if possible. If you don’t drive please make that known to the Leader who will try to arrange a lift for you.
We try to find a coffee shop near to the end of the walk.
Equipment: Appropriate walking boots/shoes are recommended and clothing suited to the weather forecast.
