We love it here!  SO MANY CHOICES. SO MANY ROUTES TO EXPLORE.....

This walk truly is a FAB Thursday boost - approx an hour at moderate Gear 2 pace with Gear 3 options. Our walk will take us out FROM Eaton and across into the UEA with plenty of choices right from the start. These walks differ each week; from saying hello to the donkeys above the Yare Valley Marshes and circumnavigating the Broad to following routes along the Yare and visiting the often-missed Earlham Hall.  There’s so much to see on wide grassy paths.  No wonder we LOVE it here.

Enjoy the views, fresh air and company of the group while also being active outdoors.  These walks alter each week but will be approx 3 miles.

ON THE FIRST THURSDAY OF EACH MONTH - THIS WALK WILL BE EXTENDED TO APPROX 4.5 MILES FOR THOSE WHO LOVE A LONGER LEG STRETCH!

Walk Description:

I would really encourage you to join us for this 5-6km walk along the many trails and maybe up to Rivington Pike 

The walk will start and end at the Pigeon Tower carpark making this a more manageable walk for all. 

Whilst there will still be an ascent to get to the Pike this will be taken steadily by either   steps or the footpath. The aim is to give anyone who has wanted to reach Rivington Pike the opportunity to do so but you can wait at the coffee bar while others take on the ascent of the steps to the summit.

The timing will depend on those walking as we will not be going quickly so I have put 3hrs as a guide only

Please feel free to ask Di any questions about the route or anything else

It is essential to register and book in advance online.
