If you enjoy walking but are no longer able to cover long distances or meet the challenge of mountain climbs, the Easy Walking group might be ideal for you. Most walks are 1 - 4 miles, occasionally further, usually along flat, well-laid tracks such as cycle paths, towpaths, pavements etc both within and beyond the boundaries of Bridgend County. The emphasis is on keeping active but enjoying conversation at the same time, so the pace is moderate. No dogs. Our walks almost invariably end with refreshments in a conveniently located café. Details of this month's planned walk will appear below.
Our next walk will be on Tuesday, 20th October when we will be taking in the sea air along the promenade at Aberavon. We will meet in the public car park on the Princess Margaret Way (behind Franco’s) at 10.30. There will be a car parking charge but it is typically quite low out of season.
If people would like to car share, I am happy to pick up a maximum of 4 (small) people at the Pines car park (top end, below Sainsbury's) at 10.00am. Others may wish to rendevous there too.
The walk terrain is footpath/pavement unless you choose to walk on the beach, but it can be wet and sandy so make sure you are suitably shod. There are public toilets available and several refreshment options but I'm guessing we will opt for Remo's or Franco's. In terms of distance, it is a maximum of 3 miles, and less if you want to stop and return at any point.
If it is raining heavily on the day the walk will not go ahead but you may not be notified of cancellation – please exercise your judgement. If it’s showers, drizzle, light rain, then it will.
Looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible.
