Group Walking Etiquette

We're a team: We look out for each other on the trails.

Pace and safety: Our walk leader sets a pace that suits the terrain, weather, and the group's abilities. We stay behind the leader and maintain a safe and cohesive formation.

Flexibility: Walk leaders may incorporate alternative routes to cater to different fitness levels.

No one left behind: Our back marker ensures everyone stays on track, and the walk leader adjusts the pace accordingly.
