Short Walks

A number of members have asked about short walks of about one and a half to two miles distance over very easy ground and that are almost level. The emphasis of the walks is on interesting and a very easy pace with either a visit to a cafe or pub at the end. Very light exercise with a social flavour.

The walks are likely to take place on Sundays, Saturdays or perhaps an evening when there is still some evening light. If you are interested in taking part in such events please contact Dave Booth (preferably by e mail - see page 11 for my email address) saying when you would like the walks to take place and some indication of your walking ability.

Dependant on response I would anticipate a walk about every two weeks. I am already involved on walks on Sundays but could lead some Saturday or evening walks in the short term. This would be for a trial period depending on numbers but ultimately I would be looking to one or more members also leading the walks.

I have a number of suitable walks but am also open to suggestions of alternatives. Obvious choices are along the canal at Slaithwaite or Hebden Bridge or around Ogden Water or Greenhead Park. Let me know what you think and I will arrange walks starting in the near future.
