Walks
Walking is good for you!
Guided Walks
Come and enjoy walks in and around the Borough of Broxbourne -
it's fun, relaxing, sociable and great for your health. Some
walks are free of charge, but where there is a small fee,
tickets must be purchased beforehand from one stop shops
or at Broxbourne Civic Hall. Alternatively you can pay by Switch or
credit card by calling (01992) 441946.
The cost per walk remains at £1, with tickets available in books
of five (£5 per book); one ticket must be handed in at the
beginning of each walk. Tickets will be valid for up to two
years.
Our informative leaders will help you discover the attractive local
countryside in friendly groups.

Wormley West End Circular Walk
The Wormley West End Circular Walk is a
short self-guided trail which takes in interesting
historical features of the area. A hard copy of the
walk is available from Lowewood Museum. This circular walk is
the result of a Shared Learning Project undertaken by members of
the Lea Valley and Broxbourne branches of U3A and is sponsored
by Friends of Lowewood
Museum.

Health walks

been coordinated throughout the County by the Countryside
Management Service. The CMS is hoping to initiate
a programme of health walks in the Borough of Broxbourne
and is looking for volunteers to train as health walk leaders. For
further details of walks within the Borough of Broxbourne and
details of how to train as a health walk leader, go to the
Hertfordshire
Health Walks website.
