Led Walking Programme

Due to the announcement on Friday 19th February by the Welsh Assembly Government, Valeways has had to cancel all walks for March 2021.

However, we will be planning a walk programme for April, May and June in the hope that restrictions will be lifted by then to resume group walking.

A Covid-19 risk assessment has been written that will be used alongside the usual Walk Leader's risk assessment to provide a safe walking experience. 

Please click here to read the Valeways Walkers Covid-19 Guidelines, which must be followed.

• avoid touching surfaces with your hands, consider wearing gloves.
• consider using alternative routes that do not pass through gardens or farm yards where social distancing may be difficult or the possibility of entering an isolation area.
• consider avoiding popular locations and busy times of day if you can.

The Valeways Guided Walks are designed to support the health and wellbeing of residents in the Vale of Glamorgan.
