Don’t like to walk up hills?

Responding to requests from people who like sight-seeing but not long walks up hill, we give you our GENTLE series of events. In our event list below, the word GENTLE next to an event means it is an easy walk. Some GENTLE events may have one incline (where stated) but they are not long, hard climbs and we will gently stroll along. Enjoy!

Join our mailing list or follow us on Facebook to ensure you get notified of all events. We sometimes add surprise pop-up events.
