Pub Walks in the
Midlands Region |
|
These pub walks are provided free for you to enjoy a good
pub after a couple of hours exercise. At least you burn off
calories before you put them all back on again! But
seriously, do not attempt any of these walks in your
flip-flops and without a map and other equipment. Even in
this over-populated country you can suddenly find yourself
in a pickle in the middle of nowhere with not a soul to be
seen. I am only a leisure walker but always take a small
rucksack with a few essentials. Here's a few items you
should consider carrying... mobile phone in case you fall
over and need help, a whistle to attract the attention of
nearby walkers or farmers in such a situation, water bottle
particularly in hot weather, plasters in case of a blister,
energy supply such as a banana. Other items such as a
compass and torch may be useful but these walks are fairly
easy to read on a map. Of course, a good pair of walking
shoes or boots are essential. I tend to wear zip-off walking
trousers and carry a waterproof just in case. I hope you
enjoy these suggested routes and, of course, the pub at the
end of the journey - beer always tastes better after a good
walk. |
