Hampstead Heath Leisurely Walk

Hampstead Heath Leisurely Walk

This health walk is recommencing in Camden. Open to all, these walks are taken at a gentle pace and led by qualified Rambler's walking for health leaders. However, due to COVID-19 these walks must now be booked in advance to ensure that groups are no larger than 7 people (1 leader plus 6 walkers).

Due to COVID-19, everyone needs to take steps to stay safe. Please follow all safety advice given by the walk leader, and keep 2 metres distance from anyone outside your household or social bubble.
