2nd Tuesday
Varies
Leader: Steven Phelps
A lot of us enjoy walking but lack the 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 trail walking experience
The Trail Walker group, usually meet every second Tuesday of the month aiming to complete long distance trails in daily sections of less than 10 miles. 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.
The group has recently completed a local trail rather disconcertingly named the Three Peaks Walk. Very much the baby brother of its namesake which combines the loftiest peaks of Scotland, England and Wales
Our next trail will be a Southern section of the Wessex Ridgeway footpath which extends in full from Marlborough through Devizes on its way to Lyme Regis!
