Walking Group

The Walking Group is open to all PHSG members and has been in existence since 1997. It aims to develop wellbeing both physically and mentally by being outside in the natural environment and to promote new friendships and camaraderie.

For further information, contact the Walking Group Coordinator annephsgwalkers@gmail.com

Walks are held every 10 days on alternate Wednesdays and Saturdays and are organised by Walking Group members who endeavour to source walks that suit all the walking members requirements.

Each walk allows for those who are able to walk up to 3 miles at a standard pace and also for those who prefer to walk around 1 mile at a slower pace.

The walks do not involve steep hills or tricky stiles and help is always at hand if required. Walking is at a pace that allows time to stop to admire views, observe the wonders of nature and enjoy bird song.

The Walking Group has 2 defibrillators that are carried by someone in each group of walkers.

Lunch afterwards at a nearby pub adds a bit of incentive!

NEXT WALK – Saturday 28th June 10:30am

Spyway Barn and Worth Matravers

From Poole take the A35 to the Baker Arms roundabout at Lytchett Minster. Turn left on to the A351 towards Wareham. Continue on this road to Corfe Castle and at the end of the village turn Right on to the B3069 towards Langton Matravers. At Langton Matravers, just past the school, turn right into Durnford Drove. Continue up the track at the end of the road (a bit rough in places) past the HPB Langton House to the National Trust car park (Grid ref SY997784 Post Code BH19 3HG) which is free to members and £4 for non-members.

The walk is just over 3 miles, reasonably flat, with 3 stiles, along tracks and through fields. There is a short cut (1.75 miles) if required.

The lunch venue has still to be decided.

Please encourage any PHSG members you know to join us on our walks, so they too can benefit from our beautiful countryside and make new friends.

For those that attend Wednesday exercise classes there is no need to say you’re unable to attend a Wednesday walk.
