This 5.5 km walk will be free to join, and no booking required, meeting at Dursley Town Hall, Market Place. leaving promptly at 10:00am
The walk takes us across the Dursley to Uley countryside.
We will walk east along the Ewelme valley towards Uley, then turn north passing below Downham Hill. The path back into Dursley passes near Chestal House.
This is an easy walk with gentle slopes and a few stiles.
You can expect to either get a little muddy or be rather warm in the summer heatwaves that we have been having. You will negotiate a stile or 2 and you may see a few sheep and cows along the way.
There is parking at 4 locations in Dursley town, May Lane and Long Street parking are long stay carparks, Sainsburys and The Pulse are limited to 2/3 hours.
About the ‘Women that walk’ walking group, it is for us ladies to get together on the last Saturday of every month. We enjoy the beautiful countryside and let off some steam. It’s free to join and you don’t need to book. We can chat, laugh, get fitter, feel better and get free counselling from each other, the good old-fashioned way.
Nothing too far or too strenuous, just energy boosting fresh air and enough pace to get your heart pumping. Take it at your own pace and we all support each other over any challenges during the walk.
All you need are some comfy walking shoes/trainers/boots.
There is a café or bar at the event starting and end point for those of you that wish to enjoy a tea or coffee (or cake)
IMPORTANT -
You are responsible for your own health & safety on this walk.
Please wear suitable clothing and footwear, we never know what the weather will throw at us, it could be wet and muddy.
I have made the decision not to permit dogs, to allow this walk to be calm and trouble free for all participants. Not everyone is a dog lover and not all dogs are keen on other dogs It gives us ladies the chance to walk and talk with nothing else to think about (my own dogs are a pain in the ***)
