Guidance for Walkers

Before walking:

Consult Trackchat or website for walk details. Last minute changes will be communicated by email and our NRWS WhatsApp Reccie group.

Check weather forecast beforehand and dress or carry appropriate clothing. 

Phone the walk leader if you are delayed as they may be able to wait for you.

On the Walk:

NRWS follows the Countryside Code

No dogs are permitted on our walks

Carry your own first aid kit and your membership card including an ICE (in case of emergency) contact. Make sure this person is listed on your mobile phone.

Carry a mobile phone if you have one.

Let either the walk leader or back marker know if you are leaving the walk.

Some routes will cross fields with livestock. Stay with the group and follow leaders’ directions. Do not get between a cow and her calf.

Bring sufficient food and drinks plus £1 for our lunchtime raffles if you wish to take part.

Car share whenever possible.
