RESIDENTS have the chance to try something new in Rowntree Park this April.
City of York Council will begin its latest Nordic walking course on Wednesday, April 26, and sessions will take place every Wednesday for four weeks from 10am until 11am, meeting at the Rowntree Park Reading Café.
Nordic walking – walking with the aid of long poles – is currently one of the fastest-growing exercise activities in the UK and was originally developed from cross-country skiing.
At the end of the course participants will receive a Nordic Walking UK Freedom Card, which will enable them to attend Nordic Walking groups anywhere in the UK.
The cost of the course is £25, and booking is essential as places are limited.
