Take a Step in the Right Direction

The Deepings Walking Group | Walking for Health      

A programme of healthy walks across the Lincolnshire Deepings, nearby towns and villages and targeted at all age groups and abilities.

The power of walking can bring you lots of health benefits and the technique is simple. It is a low impact form of exercise which is inexpensive and why many people take up walking as a hobby.

Walks are structured and experienced walkers guide them.

Please take a look at our current walk programme.

We have two groups of walkers, Striders and Strollers with the walks ranging between 60 and 90 minutes, so participants can walk in a group at a pace that's comfortable for them. The walks are very sociable and being part of a crowd provides encouragement, support and a steady flow of banter and laughter. It gives you the opportunity to meet new people and make new friends, a natter over refreshments at the end of the walk is as important as feeling healthy and getting into shape.
