Bollington ‘Walks for Health’ is a programme of
short, easy guided walks in and around
Bollington designed to encourage new walkers.

They provide a great opportunity to enjoy some
exercise and meet people.

The walks on this programme are weekly on a
Monday morning at 10:15am.
There are different start points around
Bollington and surrounding areas each week on
a rotational basis. All the walks are easy,
approximately 2 miles in length, with no stiles
and only gentle or short slopes/steps to climb
or go down.

Some surfaces and paths we travel on can be
rough, uneven or muddy so we do recommend
you wear sturdy shoes and appropriate clothing
for the weather conditions.

You may like to bring a drink.

There is a small charge of £2.

These walks have been planned and organised
by the Bridgend Centre Bollington. A certain basic level of
fitness is required to do these walks so please
ring the Bridgend Centre if you require any
guidance or more information.

All those taking part do so at their own risk and
should take into consideration their ability to
walk unaided, bearing in mind the weather conditions on the day.
