Poole U3A is able to offer walks of varying lengths and requiring varying levels of fitness.
The Events Calendar lists all walks currently available, for further details of each type of walk please scroll down the page.
Pub Strolls
Pub Strolls covering two and a half to three miles at a gentle pace. They start at 10:15am prompt and finish at a pub for lunch. Walkers may like to bring refreshments for a half-way stop. There will be two walks per term on either the last Wednesday or Friday of the month. Suitable footwear and weatherproof clothing are recommended. New members are always welcome.
For further details of Pub Strolls please contact Alan Chitty on 8834474 or at achitty@tiscali.co.uk.
Pub Walks
Pub Walks are usually between four and five miles long, start at 10:00am prompt and are taken at a fairly easy walking pace, returning in time for lunch. New members are always welcome.
For more details of Pub Walks please phone Ann or Ian Robinson on 625635.
Country Walks
All country walks start at 10:00am sharp and return by lunch-time. Each route covers some 5 or 6 miles taken at a "third age" pace. There may be stiles, mud or slopes. Suitable walking boots or shoes and adequate clothing should be worn. These walks are separate from Pub Walks and are for those accustomed to walking a little further. You must be confident in your own ability and level of fitness to join these walks.
Walk dates are early in the month and on different mornings to minimise the impact on regular courses and to allow people flexibility in their options.
For more details of Country Walks please phone Sheila or Steve on 657142.
Longer Day Walks
Val Ingram is willing to lead one moderately paced, longer day walk per term, of about 8 miles. The start and finish could be accessed by bus or car.
