NORTON EIGHT WALK | 5 MILES | MODERATE| NORTHANTS
January 13 @ 9:45 am - 12:30 pm GMT
🥾 ABOUT THE WALK 🥾
Start your week with an invigorating 5-mile adventure through the charming Northamptonshire countryside! Beginning at Norton Church, this unique figure-of-eight route takes us across open fields, along the serene canal, and past some delightful surprises. From waving at boats in the marina to admiring a classic car collection and a quaint shepherd’s hut on its own island, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
🐾 Dog-Friendly: Bring your four-legged friends—they’ll love it as much as you do!
🍬 Halfway Treats: Free sweets at the midpoint to keep you going.
👋 All Welcome: First-timers walk for free, and our friendly group is guaranteed to make you feel at home.
Join us for fresh air, fabulous company, and a morning full of good vibes. Walking has never been so much fun!
❓ ROUND-ROBIN QUESTION: Today is Make Your Dreams Come True Day! 🛶🚗 If you could own one unique thing—like a classic car, a houseboat, or even a shepherd’s hut—what would it be and why?
Please arrive by 9.45 am we will set off at 10 am sharp. If this is your first AG walk, then please arrive nice and early and seek out the walk leader who will be wearing a red “walk leader” pin badge.
