Walk Description:
NOTE 10AM START TIME - MONTHLY WALK - Led by NWUK Instructor Susan Spain, the`All Together Now`2 to 2.5 hour moderate to faster pace adventure walk is a monthly sociable Nordic walk of around 4 - 5 miles around some of the lovely greenspace & walking routes in South Manchester you may not be aware of. Build your fitness & stamina. This walk replaces the Monday Blaster Workout Walk on one Monday a month.
NEW ROUTE - THIS MONTH - OUT AND BACK TO THE RIVERBANK CAFE, SALE - STARTING FROM LONGFORD PARK, STRETFORD at 10am. We may be back slightly later at 12.45 depending on the pace on the day. This is an out & back 5 mile route via Turn Moss, Stretford Meadows, the Trans Pennine Trail & Kickety Brook with a 30 minute mid walk pit stop at the Riverbank Cafe,by the River Mersey. It may be muddy in places so please be prepared footwear-wise. Toilets are available at the cafe in Longford Park & also at the RiverbankCafe (Portaloos so I suggest you bring hand gel with you). There is a 10% discount off the price of a brew at the Riverbank cafe if you bring a standard size (not tall) reusable cup that fits under their coffee machine.
Nearest metrolink stop is Stretford, a short walk from the park down Edge Lane.
