Tramping in Thurlestone
We are so fortunate in the village to have a very active walking group known as Tramps.
During the summer months, we walk every week and during deep winter we walk every fortnight. In 2016 we organised 46 walks to keep us fit. Walks are alternate ‘long’ and ‘short’ with a fairly loose definition of length! ‘Short’ is usually about 4 miles and ‘long’ is anything from 6 to 9 miles.
Membership is open to all locals and we invite visitors to join us every week.
Members volunteer to lead the walks and they can then choose the day of the week and the location of the walk. With such a wide range of beautiful countryside, we can be on the coast one week and in the middle of Dartmoor the next week. Group sizes range from 6 to 18 but frequently there are about 12 walkers on any week.
This is a great way to improve your fitness and to maintain your social skills!
