Overview

Our first evening walk of the season takes in the forests and lakes of lovely Beaudesert Old Park at the southern end of Cannock Chase. Some steady hills, some nice wide tracks, and some not so wide tracks too - just to make things interesting!

Do come along and join us, especially if you're new. It's a great opportunity to try the group out without committing yourself to the longer mileages of our Sunday events.
