The walking group started back in August 2003 with just one walk a week. We now have 3 regular walks per week, which includes 1 health walk. We have approx 40 walkers for the Tuesday walk and 12 walkers on the Friday walk. The health walk, which takes place on a Thursday, has between 6-12 walkers. This extra walking day was introduced for the people who cannot walk a long distance for a long period of time.
Our walks
All walks start at The Killamarsh Sports Centre, Sheffield Road, Killamarsh, S21 1DY
Tuesday and Friday 10am start. Walks last for approx 2 to 2.5 hours. Walks suitable for intermediate and advanced.
Thursday walks commence at 11-30. Walks last for no more than 1 hour. Suitable for people with health conditions. eg stable angina, obesity, hypertension and stroke victims.
Teas and coffees served in the bar after the walk.
Have recently added a pushchair walk on a Thursday afternoon from the sports centre at 1-30 until 2-30. There is an option to come back to the centre for baby play and teas and coffees.
