About this Event
🥾 ABOUT THE WALK 🥾
Starting from the main car park we will head towards the lake. You may be wondering why we have called this the “whale walk” – when you look at the map, it is shaped like a whale, that is the only reason. As far as I am aware there are no whales in the lake…. but you never know! We also walk over the golden glow bridge which is very pretty at this time of year.
This is a nice easy walk and the terrain is mainly paved. We will walk along the lake, up to the rafting centre and then make our way back to the main car park in a full loop, stopping for sweets along the way.
Why you should join:
- 🐾 Dog-friendly (social pups welcome!)
- 👋 The first two walks are FREE.
- 🍬 Free sweets at the halfway point!
- 😁 Friendly group—a great way to meet people and dogs
- 🌳 Scenic mix of towpaths, roads, and fields
❓ ROUND-ROBIN QUESTION: It's National Chocolate Day - do you like to indulge? What is your favourite chocolate?
Please arrive by 6.15 pm we will set off at 6.30 pm sharp. If this is your first AG walk, then please arrive nice and early and seek out the walk leader who will be wearing a red "walk leader" pin badge. They will give you a new walkers briefing and explain how it all works.
