Eglinton Country Park

Full Walk Description

These Nordic walking sessions take place mainly on countryside trails.  Surfaces range from flat to moderate inclines.  It will often be muddy in places.

Sessions incorporate a warm up walk and stretch followed by an increase in intensity to get pulses raising. 

It’s not just about the walking either as the sessions incorporate functional exercises (exercises that mimic daily activities and help to keep you strong and safe during these activities), which can be modified to suit each client at an individual level. Using body weight, poles and bands these sessions offer variety and challenging addition to the walks.
