**New joiners welcome!**

Our monthly easy walk returns for May. This month we head to Hadfield and explore a disused railway before walking around some of the reservoirs in the beautiful Longdendale valley. A great way to experience the grandeur of the hills without actually climbing them :)

These walks are designed to be suitable for people with no walking experience or specialised clothing. Also anyone who just fancies an easier walk for a change, all are welcome.

**FAQs:**

*What to wear?* Any walking boots or trainers are okay, provided you don’t mind if they get a little muddy!

*Can I bring a dog?* Dogs are welcome on a short lead, see https://www.madwalkers.org.uk/about-us/policies/dogs-on-walks-policy/ for details.

*Can I drive to the walk start?* You’re more than welcome to meet us at Hadfield station — just make sure to arrive before the train.

*Should I bring food?* Please bring a packed lunch - there will be a lunch break around midday.

**Many of our members are not on Meetup,** so the RSVP list will be smaller than the total number of attendees. Typically around 30 people join each walk, so there's plenty of people to chat with.

10:23 - Meet at Manchester Piccadilly, near the departure board
10:33 - Train departs for the walk start at Hadfield
11:15 - Walk starts at Hadfield
15:45 (approx) - Walk end and optional post-walk drinks
