Our walks

Gatacre WfH - Level Two

Meet every Tuesday at 2pm at the sports pavilion off Gatacre Avenue, Oswestry, SY11 1DP.

Walks last between 60-90 minutes and are led at a gentle to brisk pace. Please expect some inclines (and scenic views!) Walks finish back at the pavilion for refreshments.

Lorne Street WfH - Level One

Lorne Street walkers meet every Thursday at 10.30am at the Oswestry Senior Citizens Club, Lorne Street, SY11 1ND.

Walks last between 40 - 60 minutes on easy terrain such as pavements or easy access footpaths. There may be some slight gradients, but we walk at a gentle pace and will accomodate all new walkers. Walks finish at the Senior Citizen's Club for tea and coffee.

Please wear comfortable footwear and arrive at the starting venue ten minutes prior to the start of the walk for registration.
