Short walks
Short Walks is a popular group that is sometimes at capacity for walking, so prospective members should contact the convenor first. The walks are in interesting areas and typically cover 3-4 miles usually on good paths and with some short moderate uphill climbs, nothing that a reasonably fit person couldn’t manage. We all take our time – no rush.
If you need transport to the start of the walk then please contact one of the convenors in advance so that they can arrange a car share for you (expenses will be shared based on pre-agreed formula).
