Friends of the Hertfordshire WayWalks programme 2010

|
We meet for a group walk once a month, except December. Most of the walks are within Hertfordshire but from time to time we stray into one of our neighbouring counties. The current walks programme is given below. Although we usually try to include a pub stop for lunch, and the walk leader will have checked it out beforehand, it does happen that pubs change hands, so we can not guarantee that the chosen pubs will still be serving food by the time of the walk. We include details of the lunchtime stop, so that anyone who doesn't want to walk the full distance can either join or leave the main group at lunchtime. Remember: whenever you have to leave your car in a residential area, park it with due consideration for those who live there. All are welcome on these walks (but no dogs please), and no payment is required, but if you join us on a regular basis we would ask you to become a member of the Society. Unless otherwise stated, we aim to start walking at 10.00 am, so you should arrive at the start point in good time to park your car and put your boots on. The leader will not normally wait for late-comers. |
