Nordic Walking week commencing 3rd September, 2018

Hi Walkers,

Thanks to all those who came along to the Pop Up Breakfast walk last week. We were spoiled with amazing weather and the views never fail to impress on this scenic linear walk from Maulden to Ampthill. We will do this again soon!

WALKS COMING UP

For the Bedfordshire Walking Festival I will be doing a few Free Taster sessions and walks. If you have any friends or family who want to try Nordic Walking these Taster sessions are a great introduction. The two walks I’m doing are for non Nordic Walkers also and are Free! Come along and enjoy.
