Important Notice!
As a new starter to Nordic Walking you will need to complete our 3 technique training steps. A Taster, Technique Training 1 and Technique Training 2. These 3 training steps MUST be completed in order, so even though you can make the booking for each at the same time, make sure that the dates for each are after one another. i.e DON't book a Technique Training 2 class that takes place before the Taster, etc.
Poles are included in all Taster and Technique Training sessions.

WALK DESCRIPTION: Starting/Ending at Polesden Lacey, passing by Ranmore, Denbies Hillside and White Downs. This is a scenic circular walk with lovely views, one of the prettiest woods I’ve been in and lots of Bluebells throughout (if nature is kind and they happen to be blooming at the right time for us!). So put your Nordic Walking skills, poles (and the fitness you have gained using them) to good use on a longer Nordic and see somewhere different, with lovely views (but not too far away from home).
It will not be rushed, we will go as fast as the slowest person. We are there to enjoy the surroundings, not to complete the Nordic as fast as possible. For those that did the Banstead/Chipstead/Denbies walk it will be the same approach.
There are a few hills (4 or 5) (which is why you get lovely views!)
There are ONLY TWO Stiles (and they aren’t too high)
There could be cows and sheep (Though there were ‘No livestock today’ signs up every time the route was checked)
There are toilets and a cafe at Polesden Lacey (but only trees/bushes on the route!).
DETAILS
All times are estimates, not guaranteed. The duration/completion times will be dictated by the pace of our Nordicers (with varying paces). It will consequently take as long as it takes the 'whole' group to complete the route. I believe, these are generous/max. and I would anticipate the duration time could be shorter. (As a guide myself/Hatti did the route in 2hr 40mins.)
DATES: Friday 26 April
Saturday 27 April
WALK COST: £20.00 (not including meal)
START LOCATION: Polesden Lacey (National Trust) Car-Park.
END LOCATION: Polesden Lacey (National Trust) Car-Park.
PARKING: £2 – 2hrs / £5-All day / NT Members Free - Open 7.30am-7.30pm
Distance (Approx.): 13 1/3 km
ARRIVAL TIME: 8.45 am
Please ensure you LEAVE SUFFICIENT TRAVEL TIME and arrive by 8.45am latest to find a space, visit the W.C., get your walking clothes/footwear on etc. so we can 'leave' sharp at 9.00am. Please note: We cannot wait for people to arrive. So unfortunately if you are not there and ready to leave by 9.00am you will miss the walk. (Google drive times fyi at the bottom of this email)
Start Time: 09:00 am
EST. NORDIC WALK DURATION: 4hrs (approx./see above)
EST. NORDIC WALK FINISH TIME (excl lunch): 13.00-13.30pm (approx.)

LUNCH
Lunch (Optional): The King William Pub http://www.thekingwilliamiv.com/ I have reserved a table for 1.00-2.00pm. Google maps indicates a 12 min drive from Polesden Lacey.
If you would like lunch after the walk (you will have earned it!). Please could you select The King William Pub Lunch for the relevant date (26 April OR 27 April) to confirm if you will be attending lunch after the Nordic please, so that I can confirm numbers to the venue.
(The café at Polesden do not reserve seating for groups, and it could be very busy, hence not having lunch there).

The Wellbeing Nordic Walk is a very gentle one for trained Nordic Walkers who wish to get out and practice/develop their Nordic Walking Technique and improve their fitness levels, whilst working at a pace appropriate for them.
You will receive Support, Technique guidance/correction and motivation from a qualified Nordic Walking and First Aid Trained Instructor.
Additionally, the Wellbeing Nordic Walks are at a significantly slower pace than other sessions, consequently the distances covered are somewhat shorter. We do warm-up exercises before the session and Cool-down stretches after our Nordic Walk.
The warm-ups and cool-downs are slightly different and slower paced than other sessions, to allow participants more time to transition between each exercise/stretch.
These sessions also sometimes incorporate exercises designed to improve balance, strength, mobility and general fitness.
Our Nordic Walking Group has evolved to become its own little community consisting of friendly, welcoming and supportive people who enjoy a chat whilst they exercise. You can participate social element as much, or as little, as you wish.
