Trail Walker

2nd Tuesday

Varies

Leader: Steven Phelps

The Trail Walker group, usually meet every second Tuesday of the month aiming to complete long distance trails walking sections of approximately 10 miles.
A lot of us enjoy walking but lack confidence or means to attempt trail walking routes alone. If you are tempted to try long distance trails in bite size chunks, then the Devizes U3A trail walking group is for you. New members are really welcome to join our small friendly and supportive group as we ramble along England’s finest public footpaths, sometimes rounding off the day’s efforts with a refreshing debrief in a local hostelry or cafe.
We take particular care to walk at a comfortable pace for everyone with regular breaks – so that we all enjoy the experience.
The Trail Walker group, usually meet every second Tuesday of the month and there is some flexibility with timing to ensure as many people as possible can experience the sense of achievement in completing a full trail walk. Members share transport so there is no need to retrace our steps.
On 13 January 2026 we commenced walking the Mendip Way from Frome to Brean Down (Nr Weston-S-Mare), a distance of approximately 53 miles.

The schedule we intend to follow:

31 March: Wookey Hole to Cheddar
14 April: Cheddar to Loxton
12 May: Loxton to Finish
