Tel 01609 771624 Email paul.fisher@_;ageuknorthyorkshire.org.uk |
Hambleton Strollers organizes fortnightly led walks round Thirsk (and also in the other main towns of Hambleton District). Anyone can join the walks, but we especially welcome the over 50s, those with health risks such as heart disease due to inactive lifestyles, people recovering from health problems and needing simple exercise, and those who would just like some company for walking. Walks are usually about an hour and are on good level footpaths around the towns and on surrounding field paths when weather conditions allow. We move at a pace brisk enough for individuals to feel an increased heart rate and faster breathing. Most walks start at 10.30 am with often refreshments afterwards. Independent walk packs with maps of some routes have also been developed so that people can walk out more frequently and maintain the health benefits. Paper copies are available from the coordinator or to view and print a copy of the Thirsk pack CLICK HERE |

Northallerton Striders encourages people of all ages to get up and go walking by providing longer guided walks – about two hours - so people can have the confidence of knowing they will not get lost. The walks explore new routes, building up confidence and ensuring paths are passable. Route maps and guides are usually available so that walkers can go back and try the walk again. There are summer evening outings on Wednesdays in 2013 from villages near the Thirsk to Ripon bus route. Other regular walks are on alternate Fridays and Saturdays. The walks may start in town, but are more likely to start in a local village and walking on tracks, field footpaths and minor roads. We try to plan walks based on bus stops to accommodate those people who do not drive, but we also plan walks to end at a tea shop or pub for socializing afterwards. For more information, contact John Brookes or look at the website for walk dates and venues. |
