Simply Walk is a friendly, welcoming walking programme run by Buckinghamshire Council, offering over 70 guided walks across Buckinghamshire. Our trained volunteer walk leaders and backmarkers ensure you can walk at your own pace, so you never need to worry about being left behind. All new walkers are welcome, whether you are fit and active, haven't exercised in a long time, or have been advised to join by a doctor.
Walk Levels:
- Level 1: Get started with walks over flat ground and no stiles (up to 45 minutes).
- Level 2: Occasional stile and gradient (up to 60 minutes).
- Level 3: Occasional stile and gradient (between 60 to 90 minutes).
- Level 4: Occasional stile and gradient (90 minutes plus, more demanding terrain).
Level 4 walks are the most advanced and may cover more challenging terrain, but all levels are part of the Simply Walk scheme.
