Weekly Classes

  • Nordic Walking Group

    🌿 Nordic Walking at Barshaw Park
    Join us every Thursday at 10am for a refreshing Nordic Walk through Barshaw Park. It’s a great way to stay active, enjoy the outdoors, and meet new people.

    Poles are provided, and all fitness levels are welcome. Just remember to dress in warm layers, wear sturdy footwear, and bring gloves.

    After the walk, enjoy a hot drink and biscuits in good company. Sessions are free, though a small donation to Friends of Barshaw Park is always appreciated. Donations can be made online here or in-person.
