Age Concern Barnet runs 13 instructor-led walks throughout many of the borough’s green spaces. Anyone over the age of 18 can join a walk. There is no need to book - just turn up on the day.
Walking is sociable, as well as one of your body's most natural forms of exercise. It's safe, simple, doesn't require practice, and there are many health benefits.
Walks last an hour and range in difficulty. Grade 1 is the easiest and grade 5 the hardest. All walks are taken by qualified instructors and include some additional exercises to challenge your physical fitness and develop strength and conditioning.
Walks cost:-
• £2.50 if you pay each time
• £20.00 paid in advance for 10 walks
• £17.00 paid in advance for 10 walks for the over 60’s (proof of eligibility is required)
