Join this very friendly group for delightful short walks in or around Henley. Light exercise, fresh air, lovely views and interesting conversations! No need to book but just turn up on time! 3rd Wednesdays of each month; weather permitting. Walks are usually a few miles, not more than a couple of hours and fairly flat.  Some of us usually go for coffee afterwards.

Updates will be posted on this website; as will any cancellations (only if weather really bad), which we will try to notify by latest 9:00am on the day of the walk.

All walkers are invited to register their names at the walk and to provide their email addresses and emergency phone numbers (not the walkers'), unless already given to the organiser.

Walkers should be prepared to deal with any possible hazards concerning their physical abilities, clothing and equipment. We try to highlight some of these, but most walks involve some road crossings, overhead branches, rough terrain and some inclines. Please dress appropriately for weather. Advisable to bring water. Walkers do so voluntarily and entirely at their own risk; concerning their health, safety and belongings. The leaders and organiser are volunteers providing only guidance/advice and enabling the activity to take place. They are in no way responsible for walkers, who must satisfy themselves that they are fit enough for the activity, seek medical advice if necessary and notify the leader of any medical issues which might affect themselves or the group.

Contact for group organiser: Roger Shaw for more information.

Always time to admire nature!
