Fitness walks for the new year
If your new year’s resolution is to get fit then we’ve got plenty of trails to help you achieve your goals. These routes are all six miles or less, with varied terrain that will help build your stamina. There are plenty of beautiful views too, which provide the perfect motivation to head outside and get active.
A brisk walk to uplift the senses
Walking is one of the easiest ways to get fit. By taking a 30-minute walk every weekday, you'll accomplish the recommended 150 minutes of exercise per week. A brisk walk can make you feel happier. Awareness of your surroundings, fresh air, and the sight of the sky aren't just things that one of our founders, Octavia Hill, wanted everyone to have access to, they'll also help you reconnect with our natural and striking world.
Ever felt refreshed after just a quick stroll around the block? When this happens, your body releases good endorphins to lift your mood and prepare you to tackle the rest of the day. Even a 10-minute walk is proven to give you that feel-good effect.
