Simply Walk

We offer over 60 walks across Buckinghamshire.

Our trained volunteer walk leaders and backmarkers are there to help you walk at your own pace, with no need to worry about being left behind. However, try and attend the level of walk you feel you can do.

All new walkers are welcome whether you are fit and active, haven't exercised in a long time, or have been advised to join by a doctor.

Taking part

You need to register for Simply Walk online before attending your first walk.

If you are not able to register online, paper copies of the registration form will be available from your walk leader on-site.

Levels of walking

  • Level 1: Get started with walks over flat ground and no stiles (up to 45 minutes)
  • Level 2: Occasional stile and gradient (up to 60 minutes)
  • Level 3: Occasional stile and gradient (between 60 to 90 minutes)
  • Level 4: Occasional stile and gradient (90 minutes plus)

Level 4 walks are the most advanced walks. They are more than 1.5 hours and possibly over more demanding terrain. Although they are not officially a “health walk”, they are still part of the Simply Walk scheme.

Dogs

We regret that only registered assistance dogs are allowed on our walks.

Volunteering
