FAQ
Will there be a toilet?
While there are no toilets on this route, Ginette will be able to point out suitable spots for a wild wee.
Can I bring my dog?
Dogs are welcome but please ensure that they are on the lead around livestock. Ginette’s dog Cookie regularly has ‘take your dog to work’ days and may attend. If any participants have a dog allergy, this will be mentioned to dog owners at the start of the hike.
What will the pace be?
The pace will be steady; the aim is that all participants enjoy themselves. No one will be left behind.
What if I am worried about my fitness levels?
Please feel free to get in contact if you are concerned about this and I will be able to advise you on a personal level. I run a range of hikes with varying levels of ability in the aim that there is something for everyone as one of my goals is to enable people to access the outdoors safely so that we can all get back to nature.
