We’re a Ramblers group aimed mainly at people in their 20s, 30s and slightly older, offering led walks and social events across Herts, Beds and south Cambs.
This walk is for up to 15 people, including the leader.
An evening woodland walk from Welwyn Garden City followed by optional dinner at Postino Lounge!
Mental Health Awareness week takes place from 13th to 19th May, on the theme of “Movement: Moving more for our mental health". Join us for a mental, physical and social mid-week boost on a short walk through Sherrardspark Woods and open spaces in Digswell Park, including passing St John's Church and Digswell House. There are a few slopes along the way but nothing too strenuous!
Afterwards there is the option to enjoy a late dinner with us at Postino Lounge from 8.45pm, where it will be Tapas Tuesday (3 tapas and a glass of wine for £13.75)! They also have a wide ranging menu of mains, burgers and flatbreads. Please indicate when booking on Meetup whether you will be joining us.
If it has been raining in the days before the walk then the woods will likely be muddy so please bring a change of shoes if joining for dinner.
Dogs are welcome on a lead.
For information about walking with the group, including our dog policy, please visit the Stag Walkers website.
Booking your place: If you would like to join, you must book in advance using the Stag Walkers Meetup group - see Notes for how to book & what to bring. If you are unable to attend, please cancel your booking so that someone else can take your place.
Please do not turn up for a walk without booking, as places are limited.
Unless you opt in to further communications, we will only use contact information you provide to get in touch about the walk.
Please car-share or use public transport if possible. To offer a lift or ask for one from a fellow walker, please use the Meetup event page.
This is a circular walk.
Please be aware of the walk grade: walks are graded Easy, Leisurely, Moderate or Strenuous
Use our Meetup group to book your place on the walk: https://www.meetup.com/StagWalkers/
Book your place via the Stag Walkers Meetup group by clicking the ‘Attend’ button on the event page. If the walk is full, click ‘join waitlist’ and you will be added if a place becomes available. If you’re on the waitlist, please check back regularly to see if you have been added to the attending list.
Please:
DO NOT book onto a walk unless you are pretty sure you will be able to make it.
UPDATE YOUR RSVP. We understand ‘life happens’ so if you need to change your RSVP please do this at least 24 hours before the walk and before booking closes to enable someone else to take your place.
DON’T NO-SHOW on the day unless it is absolutely unavoidable (we do understand ‘life happens’) because it prevents others from enjoying a walk if it is fully booked.
*TAKE NOTE that if you no-show and/or cancel after the booking closing deadline three times, without extenuating circumstances, we will decline further bookings from you for a period of six weeks.*
Bring a packed lunch/snacks and drinks, appropriate clothing for the conditions and optionally a basic first aid kit.
Please follow NHS guidelines and do not attend the walk if you are unwell.
