Up and coming walks this March with the Deeside Ramblers

Join the Deeside Ramblers on one of their walks in March, with Spring in the air its a perfect way to get out and enjoy the region.

According to a recent report produced by the University of East Anglia, walking with groups cuts the risk of life threatening conditions.

The study led by Sarah Hanson and Prof Andy Jones showed that joining a walking group is one of the best and easiest ways to boost overall health. Their research showed that people walking in a group walk faster and further than they would normally walk

By joining a group such as Deeside Ramblers, people can improve their fitness, make new friends as well as exploring different areas of the countryside.
