The Spring Equinox falls on Wednesday 20 March this year – and that means the season’s definitely on the change. Get out and about on one of these organised walks.
Walk information is correct at press time but always call beforehand to ensure walks are going ahead and to check times. Wear weather-appropriate clothing and footwear and carry water and, if required, a snack/lunch.
