Walk it Walks - a Programme for 2005

Things to do in Melrose Scottish Borders
Walking in Scotland

Think of our walks as a starter pack to your health and well-being. They are designed for people who are seeking a healthier lifestyle and are fun, social events. They usually last between 30 to 45 minutes and are over easy routes � no long distance hill walking is involved. The walks are free and all you need is a pair of comfortable shoes. So why not join our friendly Walk Leaders for a stroll and a blether and start to walk your way to health and happiness now!
