Join us on Tuesday 30th April for a FREE self-guided trip to Grizedale Forest in the Lake District! We will be approaching Grizedale forest via the Furness peninsula, travelling through Greenodd and Colton!

Going for a walk is a simple step towards improving overall health. Walking keeps our bodies and minds healthy, giving us a breather from the stresses of daily life and a space to gather our thoughts. Exploring open countryside brings us closer to nature and there's increasing evidence that walking in nature is an important approach to improved mental health and general well-being, so join us and explore the fantastic forests and all that the area has to offer.

We do want everyone to have a safe and enjoyable visit, so before booking onto this self-guided excursion we suggest doing some research surrounding activities to do, things to see and most importantly what to wear etc. If you wish, you can independently book on to some paid activities, such as hiring a bike, Segway, Go-Ape. These activities are subject to availability and are not included in this trip. For further information please see https://www.forestryengland.uk/grizedale/activities

We’re really excited for this trip and hope to you see you there.

Bookings for this event have now closed.

This trip is open to Furness College Undergraduates only.

This is a pre-book only event and further details have been sent to those registered prior to the trip taking place.
