The dawdles continue. I’ve found a further series of short walks – which of course are still permitted. The details and dates are below with a bit of a gap in the middle due to a holiday. To reassure anyone wanting to join in, it is not a mountain trek, we walk at a speed convenient for all – including pauses to look at the scenery, flowers, buildings – or to simply take a break. They have generally been an about an hour and range from 1.22 to 2.45 miles. Most of the small group had a celebratory cup of coffee at the end of the last walk to mark the end of the first ‘season’.
It isn’t a mountain trek but the surface isn’t as smooth as a newly laid tarmac road surface, more like a pavement or canal path surface. The weather, with one exception that threatened drizzle, has been excellent. I think everyone has been to at least one place they’d not visited before…. and there’s more below. All welcome.
Graham Tarn will be at each of these places mentioned below. Different days, times and venues which will hopefully enable everyone from across the Partnership to find one (or several) that work for you and we can all meet, learn about each other, become friends – for an hour (or so).
Friday 14 May, Cheetham Park, 2pm (main entrance off B6175)
Thursday 20 May, Silver Springs & Chadwick Dam, 10:30am (meet at car park)
Wednesday 26 May, Werneth Low, 2pm (Quarry car park)
Tuesday 1 June, Hyde Park (NOT London), 10:30 (Park Dr & Park Rd junction)
Monday 7 June, Cowbury Dale, 2pm (Carr Rise car park)
Saturday 12 June, Haughton Dale, 4pm (By St Mary’s Church, Meadow Lane – HILL)
For these first outings, the plan is to stay within the park – but everyone can do their own thing as it might be rather limiting for some. However, the fresh air, exercise but more importantly, the conversations will be what makes the day.
