Nordic Walking in Northumberland

Nordic Walkers at Druridge Bay

The first Northumberland Nordic Walking Festival took place on 24th September 2011 with over 80 adults and families taking part in the new Nordic Walking craze, many for the first time and several of those enjoyed it so much they booked on for more walks later that afternoon!

With the sun shining at Druridge Bay, Nordic Walkers could learn how to Nordic Walk which improves your all round fitness more than walking alone and is great for people young and old - participants ranged from 6 years to 80 years old. Nordic Walkers described the fun event as 'fantastic atmosphere', 'brilliant tutors' and 'enjoyable'.
