The Medium Walking Group

Co-ordinator:   Alison Thompson - mediumwalk@ashbyu3a.co.uk - phone 07930 557432


The leader will be at the meeting place whatever the weather and only cancel the walk in consultation with those who turn up on the day. All dogs must be kept under control at all times. Walking boots or strong shoes are recommended. Be prepared for bad weather by taking warm WATERPROOF clothing. Leaders act in a voluntary capacity. All ramblers walk at their own risk.

NOTE
The walk leader is responsible for advising the webmaster of the start point of the walk, and afterwards sending him a walk report. The first aid box and list of emergency contacts will be passed on after each walk to the next leader or to Alison.

Monday 9th February. Dimminsdale and Calke, led by Val

For a change the day was fine if overcast and 9 of us met in Dimminsdale NT car park. We walked down the road and entered the woods taking the path around the top of the Quarry enjoying the host of Snowdrops in flower throughout the woods, from there we walked through Calke parkland, stopping for our coffee break by the Calke café, before walking around the deer park, crossing the bridges across a now very full Staunton Harold Reservoir, then continuing on the road to bring us back to Dimminsdale car park. 4.5 miles
