Hello to you all
« on: 12:45:34, 30/04/18 »
Good day everyone, not sure how to start this but a little about myself first, 55y m recently retired got loads of time on my hands an becoming unfit very quickly iv'e tried the usual pastimes suggested by my friends, Golf, Fishing, Pub, an so on but none of them for me, i would really love to get back into walking an the great outdoors only thing holding me back is the lack of knowledge  an confidence  to venture out on my own, i live in Doncaster an really love the peak district, any suggestions or advice would be kindly received. Many thanks

Hi dvd and welcome from the Peak District O0 


Have you considered joining a walking group?  Sometimes it's easier to go with other like-minded people, rather than walk by yourself....especially if you're short on both confidence and knowledge of where to go.


Quite a few different groups out there, most of which will cover the Peak District...

Lots of groups up your way too...

Best wishes,

Tracey :)

Welcome from North Warwickshire.

I also love the peak district but come at it from the other direction to you :) ... I hope you find a good walking group to join.

Hello! Excited to join the forum!


I'm Jack and I love walking, either once a week to keep myself on the road or during my holidays.




Cheers
