Light 'n Leisurely Walks

Just like the supermarkets - the lo-fat, lo-starch, lo-hills, lo-length reduced walks....

These Light 'n Leisurely Walks are ideal for those who want something shorter and easier than our main weekend walks.
They are around 4 -5 miles long and try to avoid steep climbs (as far as the South Wales Valleys allow....)
If you have any questions or want any further information on these walks, please contact :-
Maggie Thomas on 01495 273057 or e-mail contact@islwyn-ramblers.co.uk

Don't Forget...
We also do Summer midweek walks, usually on a Wednesday evening.
These are an ideal half-way stage between our Light 'n Leisurely Walks and our weekend walks and are excellent practise for something longer.
