Atlas Discovery promote respect for wildlife and consideration for countryside dwellers and farmers. Small groups have less impact on the environment, foster friendship and close contact with the natural world. Plus limited numbers are safer in the light that Covid is still in the country and highly contagious. For these reasons we will be limiting our walking groups to 15 people as we are allowed to do so under new Covid relaxation

All our walks are recced and risk assessed for your safety

Disclaimer: By coming on the walk you are stating you are fit and able to do so. Please inform the Walk Leader prior to the walk of any medical issues/allergies and any health requirements you may carry on the walk such as Asthma Inhalers, EpiPens etc for your own safety
