Walking Group

November 2013 WalkPortobello and Joppa Parish Church Walking Group was formed to suit those who did not like walks which were to strenuous or too steep.  It is open to everyone, whether they are part of Church life or not and all are made welcome.

Walks take place on the 3rd Saturday of each month and depart from outside the Church in Brunstane Road North at 10am, unless otherwise stated.  A car share operates and is usually decided on the morning of the walk depending on numbers and drivers.  You do not need transport to join us.

Walk should bring a packed lunch and wear or carry suitable clothing including sturdy boots and waterproofs as the weather can be unpredictable.

Each walk is led by two people who carry a first aid kit and mobile phone.  It is their aim to ensure that everyone is as safe as possible during the walk.  The walking group is expected to stay together during the walk but walkers may leave at any time if necessary, provided they take responsibility for their own safety.  The Walking Group does not carry any insurance and it is up to each individual to be responsible for their personal safety.
