What is Nordic Walking?
Nordic Walking uses specialised poles, which should not be confused with trekking poles. The poles are used on every stride, planting and pushing off to propel the walker along and give an all over body workout.
“Nordic Walking is an enhancement of ordinary walking…and twice as effective!”
Nordic Walking in York is particularly enjoyable taking in some of the beautiful historic parts of the City of York and the surrounding countryside.
