Join us for Wild Wanders, a regular programme of walks taking place every second Sunday and every fourth Friday of the month. Reflect and reconnect with nature by joining us on Wild Wanders. Learn about local heritage, nature and wildlife, themed walks and spend time outdoors socialising whilst becoming more active.
Below is our programme of walks. Each Walk will have its own tickets available to book onto, so come to as many as you like! Our Wild Wanders are aimed at those within the Coalfield area. Our location is listed on Eventbrite at To Be Announced, this is because the locations of our walks vary. Please refer to our Wild Wander Walk Programme for locations and walk details before booking. Booking via Eventbrite is essential to attend!
