THE WALK

Embark on a refreshing mid-winter escape with our Lulworth Wellness Walk, guided by M2M volunteers Ollie & Louise. Spanning just under 5 miles (around 8 km) with a gentle 700 ft of ascent, this intermediate-level route offers the perfect balance of ease and invigorating challenge - ideal for lifting the spirits and clearing the mind on a crisp November day.

Set out through charming, well-marked paths that weave through serene woodland and open countryside - ideal terrain for reconnecting with nature at a steady pace. Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or simply looking for a peaceful, scenic escape, this walk’s approachable terrain (rated “Intermediate”) allows you to move comfortably while still feeling accomplished.

The real treat awaits at the end: a soothing sauna session that’s designed to melt away any residual chill and reward you with deep relaxation. After a few hours of fresh air and gentle exertion, slipping into the gentle warmth of the sauna will be a welcome tonic - offering time to unwind, reconnect, and relish the shared experience with your fellow adventurers. Please be aware that joining for the post-walk sauna is an additional £15.

Is this a kid-friendly event?

Can I join if I’m not the fastest walker?

• Absolutely! Together Outdoors is about community, not competition. We always look out for each other and only move as fast as the slowest person. If the group is large, it may spread out naturally, but we'll all stay together as a group. Breaks will always be factored in to keep everyone moving as closely together as possible.

COST
