Fortnightly walks in and around Ampthill
Short led walks, all welcome
Ampthill Health Walks
are for anyone who wants to get more active. They are about 3 miles long and last about an hour and a quarter. Everyone walks at their own brisk pace, with a backmarker to make sure no one is
left behind. There may be some hills and in bad weather there might also be some mud but we do our best to minimise
this!
The walks are
all free.
After the walks we usually find a cafe or similar for refreshments.
We are a very friendly group so why
not come along to one of our walks and see if it's for you?
Unfortunately group walks have not been able to restart in 2021. We will let you know when we are able to walk again.
Here we go again! Sorry to say all Health Walks are cancelled from Thurs 5th November to Wednesday 2nd December. We will restart as soon as we are told we can do so. Meanwhile stay safe.
After our break due to Coronavirus we are pleased to announce that we are restarting walks with restricted numbers as from Friday October 16th 2020. All registered walkers should have received details. Please email me if you have not received details and would like to do so.
For more information contact Lynda on 01234 740788 or olivetree47@googlemail.com
