Main Instructor:

Elizabeth Kerley

Walk Description:

For trained Nordic walkers, start the day bright and early with a workout walk to get fit. Uses Gears 1,2  3 and 4

When you have completed the Learn To Nordic Walk course, this tends to be a fast paced friendly walking group, working hard!!  Delamere Forest offers a great variety of circular walks, allowing you to explore  the hidden, quieter  parts of the Forest and appreciate the benefits of being close to the natural world.   The varied terrain is ideal for interval training to raise your heart rate and improve your fitness levels. Strength , balance exercises and smoveys workouts can  be included  but sometimes we just walk and talk and enjoy the scenery and good company.

"I have been Nordic walking with Kerley for 18 months now and really love it. I started because I wanted to meet new people and also to help with a bad back. I`ve made some super friends and my back has never been better. Kerley is a wonderful instructor and always makes the walks interesting and fun. I can recommend both Kerley and Nordic walking to anyone of any age and walking ability. Don`t think about doing Nordic walking, DO IT." Shirley

Location Notes:

Meet at Barnsbridge Carpark, off Ashton Road, Delamere Forest. Ashton Road runs from Mouldsworth to Hatchmere. The nearest sat nav reference is Fox Howl Education Centre WA6 6PA. Fox Howl Education Centre is at the Mouldsworth end of Ashton Road and the carpark is midway along Ashton Road. It has a blue notice board with Sandstone trail in white lettering. It is free but there are no loos here. The nearest loos are at Linmere Car park, by the Visitors Centre and you would need to allow an extra 10minutes to drive there and back. Alternatively we can incorporate a loo stop on our walking route so let me know if this is required.
