What we’re about
About the Group
Welcome to Northerners Way, a community for all ages coming together to reconnect with nature, ourselves, and each other.
Rooted in the beautiful wild landscapes of the North of England, we explore the healing power of mindful walking, wild swimming, and meditation. Whether you're drawn to the quiet of woodland trails, the clarity of cold water, or the peace found in a still moment — this group is here to support your journey.
Our Primary Purpose
We believe in the power of nature to restore balance, build resilience, and create connection. This group is for anyone seeking:
Cold water therapy through wild swims
Gentle or mindful group walks across moors, dales, lakes, and coast
Guided meditation and breathwork in natural settings
A welcoming space to meet like-minded souls
Togetherness without pressure — just real connection, calm, and fresh air
Whether you come for the silence, the swim, or the soul-nourishing community, you're welcome here.
Who Is This For?
Open to all ages, backgrounds, and fitness levels
You might be a seasoned wild swimmer, a curious beginner, or just someone craving stillness in nature
You value wellbeing, openness, and a supportive, non-judgmental community
What to Expect at Events
Scenic group walks across northern landscapes
Discovering new wild swimming spots together
Optional cold water dips or full swims (no pressure to plunge!)
Short guided meditations or breathwork in nature
Time to connect, chat, or just enjoy the moment in quiet
All activities are about presence, not performance — no competitiveness, no expectations, just nature, people, and peace.
