Walking Groups
Within Cheddar Valley U3A there are two long-established walking groups, and a third is proposed. Please see the main "GROUPS" page of this website to find the days that Groups meet. Please see the "CONTACTS" page of this website to find how to make contact with Group Leaders. Note: Click on any picture to see it full size.
EASY WALKING GROUP
The Easy Walking Group is for those who enjoy a 2-1/2 to 3 mile walk. We generally walk on the Mendips or on the Somerset levels. We try to avoid hills and if a stile is encountered there are plenty of willing hands to help. Our walks are usually followed with coffee at a nearby location.

ORIGINAL WALKING GROUP
The Original Walking Group was set up to give enjoyment and a chance to see the countryside, also as an opportunity to keep reasonable fit. We start our walks from many locations, and all have a chance to research and prepare them. Our walks average 4 to 7 miles, ranging from Easy to Hard, and we meet about once every 2 weeks as desired.

GENTLE SHORT WALKING GROUP
The Gentle Short Walking Group is a proposed new group. A couple of members with walking difficulties have asked if it would be possible for us to organise some suitable, short walks at places of interest. Someone has come forward who is willing to get this going, but first we need to know if any other members would be interested in joining such a group. Maybe you would be willing to act as a helper and/or provide transport. Our hope is that members will take it in turns to organise just one event.
