Parks and Pathways Nordic Walking (Salford & Manchester)
We’re a friendly group who love Nordic Walking led by Nordic Walking UK qualified fitness & Nordic Walking instructor, Susan Spain. .
Our motto is Fitness, Fun, Friendship & Fresh Air! We’re based weekly in Salford (Clifton Country Park on Saturdays plus varying Salford venues on a Thursday) and Manchester (Chorlton Water Park rotating with other South Manchester venues on a Monday) but also have a programme of monthly walks taking place in different locations across Greater Manchester. There are at least 6 sessions a week to choose from.
Walks are tailored to suit different levels of fitness from Moderate to Faster paced Workout Walks to Gentle to Easy Pace sessions so there really is something to suit almost everyone.
Benefits of Nordic walking

– Burns up to 46% more calories than regular walking
– Takes pressure off your lower joints
– Great for anyone with back, neck or shoulder problems
– Fun, sociable, safe outdoor exercise (great stress buster)
