Harris Hikers Chester Branch Proposed Social Distanced Walks and Dates March 2021.

Group walks can once again can begin on 29th March 2021.
The change of restriction rules mean that upto six people can meet outdoors and limited travel will be allowed.
Wednesday 31st March 2021.
To be announced. 
A Group Walk Around the Environs of Upton.

Walkers so far:- David S, Wendy, Mike, Fran, Paul (first six to sign up - one places left ). 

Here is the plan for a starter walk on Wednesday.

A gentle walk to Christleton Pond for lunch.  Going by one route and returning by another.  It unashamedly uses part of Nigel’s October walk, but in the opposite direction, always a challenge!

Just under 7 miles and totally flat.  Can be extended by walking to the start point.

Meet at 09-30 on Greenfield Lane (the A41 service road) where it goes over the Cycleway.


Contact David S if you want to be put on the list of walkers.


If more than six people want to walk, sorry, but any late comers will have to go onto a reserve list.
