About this Event

Welcome to Freshwalks. This Walks for Women+ event is part of our own vibrant business community programme and women in business are welcome to join us for some invigorating networking in the great outdoors. This monthly series offers a perfect entry level option and is ideal for those with busy diaries. Feel free to come alone - most Freshwalkers do - and you'll be warmly welcomed or invite a colleague or client along for company.


Route description

This circular walking route starts and finishes in Disley which lies in the north east corner of Cheshire, between the Cheshire Plains and the lowerslopes of the Pennines and the Peak District. This glorious parkland route will see us initially walk along the Gritstone Trail climbing gently as we leave Disley. We’ll then enter Lyme Park via East Lodge and head towards the centre of the park where we'll stop for some hot drinks at the cafe. Thereafter, we’ll walk upto The Cage which should afford a fabulous panoromic view across South Manchester and back towards the city. We’ll then begin the descent and wander back to the Ram’s Head in Disley.

How can I contact the organiser with any questions?

An event pack will be sent out at least 72 hours before the walk. This should answer most things but feel free to email [email protected] with any questions you may have. If you've not received the pack by this time, check your email junk or spam and then contact us. Receiving this pack is essential as it includes important disclaimers and health and safety information.


What's the refund policy?

You can self-manage a refund (minus platform fees) with 7 days notice via the Eventbrite app.

We'll transfer your place to a future Walks for Women event given 24 hours notice.


Dogs
