A 4mile/6km loop around stunning Blackheath forest and Gunpowder mills in Chilworth with coffee chat at the end
Join us for this Women’s Wellness Walks themed all things ‘Hormonal Health’. A 4mile/6km loop around stunning Blackheath forest and Gunpowder mills in Chilworth with coffee chat at the end.
These walks are tailored to women seeking a supportive environment to unwind, reflect, and prioritize their well-being.
Whilst the walks are themed each month, there is no obligation to join the conversation. It’s simply an opportunity to get expert knowledge and share support with each other.
You’ll find our Women’s Walks are around 3-5 miles and a more relaxed walking pace and will always visit a cafe or place of refreshment.
These walks will be co-hosted by amazing women who are experts in their field of Womens wellness.
This walk takes you into the evergreen woodland of Blackheath, a beautiful site of SSSI, with its tall pine trees, ferns and and fresh pine aromas. We then head to the unique Gunpowder Mill walk, with its stunning nature reclaiming exposed historic structures telling many stories of what has once been.
Overgrown waterways, mixed woodland and waterfalls lead the way to the Chilworth Vineyard and Alpaca’s with stunning views.
