Walking for Health

Marnhull Ramblers & Short Walkers

Marnhull Ramblers & Short Walkers organise regular events to help promote good health whilst enjoying the natural beauty right on your door step.

Dogs are welcome BUT must be kept under close control in accordance with the Countryside Code.

If your circumstances have changed (for example moved away from the village) and you are no longer able to join these rambles and walks, we can update the database accordingly. This is used to give advanced notice to regular participants.

Ros Eveleigh keeps Marnhull village website up to date so it can be used for reference at any time.

Protect the environment

  • take your litter home – leave no trace of your visit
  • always keep dogs under control and in sight
  • dog poo – bag it and bin it – any public waste bin will do
