Huntingdonshire Health Walk Scheme
Huntingdon Group February 2019
With <30 different routes, the Huntingdon Group walks for
about one hour behind trained walk leaders every Wednesday
starting at 2pm and Friday at 10am, excluding public holidays.
Two of February's eight walks -- on the 13th and on the 22nd --
are from the Village Hall car park. For details, please see be-
low.
Health walking is for anyone who can maintain his/her exercise
-walking pace for between 45 and 85 minutes. All-weather
clothing and footwear are key, and carrying a bottle of drinking
water is recommended. The scheme includes insurance cover
and, being also subsidised, welcomes voluntary contributions.
Venues are usually near refreshment areas, so choosing to re-
lax after the beneficial walk over a welcome cuppa may well
add to the over-all experience.
