Ramblers Wellbeing Walks
The Hiking Household are excited to announce that throughout March and April 2023 we will be leading a series of free Ramblers Wellbeing Walks around Chances Park, Carlisle and Thacka Beck Nature Reserve, Penrith. These will give families the opportunity to enjoy the nature trails together, the walks will be slow paced and pram accessible. Hardcopies of the map will be available on arrival.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
In order to sign-up to the Ramblers Wellbeing Walks you are required to register in advance, this can be done here. You will then receive a QR Code that I will scan on the day. Alternatively, I will have a handful of paper copies on the day for those who are unable to register online. There is no need to book onto a walk in advance however, it would be lovely to know who was hoping to attend so do drop me a message if you are attending. You can contact me on our Instagram page here or our via our contact page here.
