A new walking your way to health group in the seaside village of Combe Martin, North Devon.

Our walks
Walks leave various locations at 10am generally on a Thursday. If you are a new walker you need to arrive 15minutes beforehand to fill out a health questionnaire.Phone the walk leader on the programme for more info.Always check the programme for days and times.
All walks are led by trained volunteer walk leaders who will tell you the route and roughly how long it will take.Level 1 walks are for new walkers who are just starting out but welcome to all. Level 2 and 3 are for those fitter who want a bit of a challenge or have progressed from Level 1.
All walkers should wear suitable clothing and footwear and bring water and snacks or refreshments for longer walks.Well behaved dogs are welcome but check programme first.
Programmes can be picked up from the library, Tourist information , the museum ,the local deli and other locations around the village.
If you require transport ring the walk leader beforehand and they will try to arrange a car share and you will be expected to share cost of the petrol.
Events
A very successful launch was held in The Royal Marine Hotel on Thursday 23rd April. Nearly 50 people turned up to hear about the new Walk N Talk Group, pick up a leaflet, look at a slideshow of walks, eat a healthy buffet lunch and wish the group well. After a photo shoot on the beach a group went for the first walk up to West Challacombe Manor and back. Luckily the sun shone and the event was enjoyed by all.
