Midsummer night's strolls
Forget sweating away the twilight hours in front of a telly
this summer, and head out into the balmy evening air for a peak
at Britain at its lushest, on a Ramblers’ Association (RA)
‘Midsummer night’s stroll’.
This summer, from May to September, the Ramblers’ Association is
holding their ever-popular programme of summer evening strolls.
The walks are an ideal way to wind down after work, burn off
those ice-cream calories and make new friends. Hundreds of
evening walks ranging from three to seven miles will take place
around the country in cities and countryside alike, that are
free (1) , open to all and start when the work-day ends.
Walks range from family friendly ambles to strolls for people in
their 20s and 30s. It’s easy to find an evening walk near you
using the RA’s online Group Walks Finder.
Ruth Wembridge, Head of Membership at the RA, comments: “Instead
of vegging out in front of the TV this summer, why not enjoy the
long, light evenings and go out for a walk. It’s a great chance
to unwind after a stressful day at work and a sociable way to
get some fresh air and exercise.”
