The Hertfordshire Way challenge launch walks
Are you ready to explore the beauty of our county on foot?
The Hertfordshire Way officially opened in July 1998 and to celebrate its upcoming 30th anniversary the walking team are inviting all members to join them in walking a little bit (or several little bits) of the Hertfordshire Way before July 2028.
This launch weekend, on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 January, will consist of 4 guided adult social walks by the county walking team along sections of the Hertfordshire Way, as follows:
Saturday
- 10am Hertford loop via Waterford - 8k - meet at Hertford Parliament Square
- 10am Shenley leg 10k - likely linear, returning to start via public transport - meeting point tbc
Sunday
- 10am Royston loop via Therfield - 13k - meet at the Heath cafe car park on Therfield Heath
- 1pm Newgate loop - 7k - meet at Newgate Village Hall
Choose which is nearest to you or where you fancy exploring.
It’s a great chance to learn more about the “Together we have walked the Hertfordshire Way” challenge and commence your first badge of 2027, whilst enjoying the fresh air and kick starting your New Year’s resolutions.
Why not build your confidence outdoors and then take your unit or young members out and about on a Hertfordshire Way walking route near you?
For more information on these January walks, or to get started on your journey, please email the walking team at [email protected].
