Time to get on tracks and get on an hour train journey to those gorgeous woods not too far from London near Farnham and Waverley. This is going to be a proper forestry hike just as we like them. Forest lovers, cinema and tv series fans, be aware... Filming location for blockbuster movies such as Robin Hood Prince of thieves, 3 Harry Potter movies, Thor, The Avengers, and another 40 more and counting or series such as the Witcher, these millennial forests such as Bourne Woods are simply a jewel of nature in the Southern part of England. If you like a walk in the woods, this is the one you want to join as we will be in the middle of the forest or the heath for most of the trip. The hike will be average, a few ups and downs but nothing too strenuous, it is about 10miles but I can make it longer if you wish as there are acres and acres of woods, if you wish we can even push to the ruins of Waverley Abbey before we make our way back to the station, our minds cleared by the fresh air of these magical woods. As always, we can grab a drink or some food afterwards, we are here to socialise in the nature after all and enjoy ourselves fully on a day out...

Our 40th Spiritual Creatives gathering - in person! Come and join us for a lovely walk and talk around Hampstead Heath. We are meeting just outside Hampstead Heath station (London Overground train) at 11.00 on Sunday the 25th of January. Please note: This is NOT Hampstead Station on the Northern Line! It is the Hampstead HEATH station. The Google link is here: [https://goo.gl/maps/AJCNoxkKNj6K9Gp77](https://goo.gl/maps/AJCNoxkKNj6K9Gp77) We will wait for people to arrive until 11.15am and then we will begin walking. If you arrive later, you will only be able to catch up with us at Kenwood House approximately between 12 and 12.30pm. You should be able to find us sitting around as a group having a drink. If the weather permits, you'll find us outside the main café, towards the back. Look for the guy with the multicoloured scarf... that's me! After a short break of 20-30 minutes, we then walk back through the Heath, taking the long way round to Parliament Hill, and conclude our stroll back to Hampstead Heath overground station around 2 to 2.30pm. (Please note that you may become so involved in your conversations that you end up losing sight of the main group! Unfortunately, there is no way for you to catch up with us once we have become separated (and we do NOT check our phones for texts or messages during our walk) so please be mindful and conscious to stay with the main group if you want to keep up. Also please bear in mind that Hampstead Heath can be muddy sometimes, so please wear the appropriate shoes). After returning to Hampstead Heath Overground station, many of our (usually hungry) members like to continue the camaraderie over lunch at one of the local cafés or restaurants. As our group has grown over the years, these gatherings can be quite large, so we usually have to split into smaller parties and explore different venues. Some of our favourite spots are Dominique’s Café (dominiquescafe.co.uk) and Silverberries (silverberry.net), both of which offer a welcoming atmosphere and delicious food. It’s a great way to wind down the walk and continue our conversations. Spiritual Creatives is a warm-hearted and popular meetup group, as you can see from our ratings and comments! We hope to meet you then! :-) Best wishes Cliff **Find out more about us at [https://www.spiritualarts.org.uk](https://www.spiritualarts.org.uk/).**

Если вы когда-нибудь мечтали увидеть тюленей, греющихся на берегу, то время пришло😍! Мы отправляемся на побережье северного Норфолка, которое славится первозданной природной красотой👍🏻. Возможно, именно поэтому его облюбовали тюлени, обитающие здесь круглый год. Грациозные в воде и немного неуклюжие на суше, с трогательными мордочками, огромные самцы, изящные самочки и крохотные детеныши — весь пляж просто усыпан животными, а воздух наполнен их криками. Вы можете наблюдать за морскими созданиями со специально оборудованных смотровых площадок или отважиться и подойти как можно ближе. Но не стоит забывать, что на суше тюлени чувствуют себя уязвимо, а потому необходимо обращать внимание на обозначения огороженных участков, созданных ради безопасности как людей, так и животных🛑. Нас ждет потрясающее зрелище, которое подарит море впечатлений, эмоций и множество замечательных фотографий! А ещё местечко Horsey Gap прославилось тем, что в 2015 году на его пляже родились первые в мире официально зарегистрированные тюлени-двойняшки! На обратном пути мы остановимся в одном из самых популярных приморских мест в Великобритании — **Great Yarmouth**, где пообедаем в рыбном ресторане [Fish & Grill](https://g.co/kgs/qRKZ6y)🍧. Находясь в графстве Норфолк получаешь удовольствие от самого факта пребывания в этом удивительном и прекрасном месте, полном природных достопримечательностей. *** 📝План поездки: 📍**08:45 Встреча** у отеля **[Ibis London City Hotel](https://goo.gl/maps/ucQmtxqwjZs)**, 5 Commercial St, E1 6BF (рядом со станцией Aldgate East Station) 📍12:20 Короткая остановка у ветряной мельницы [Horsey](https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/horsey-windpump) для фотографий 📍12:30 — 14:50 Прогулка вдоль дюн Северного моря (Horsey Gap) в поисках тюленей 📍15:00 — 16:00 Обед в [Nelson Head](http://thenelsonhead.com/) (пожалуйста, бронируйте столики заранее), по желанию можете взять еду с собой и устроить пикник на дюнах 📍16:00 Отправление 📍19:00 London, Aldgate East 👣Продолжительность путешествия зависит от погодных условий и дорожных пробок. *** 🎁Включено в бронирование: ⚜️Аудиогид на русском ⚜️Тур-менеджер, говорящий на русском и английском языках ⚜️Транспорт, организация мероприятия ⚜️Профессиональный водитель с курсами IAM/RoSPA ⚜️Администрация и помощь во время путешествия ⚜️НДС и все налоги, комиссия платежной системы (карта/банк/PayPal) *** 🙅🏼‍♀️Не включено: ❌Питание во время путешествия: индивидуальный выбор ❌Трансфер в место встречи и после завершения поездки ❌Остановки автобуса для посадки/высадки пассажиров по пути следования ❌[Страховка](https://www.coverwise.co.uk/) в случае травм, потери багажа и личных вещей, отмены тура в последнюю минуту ❌[Evebus Club](https://evebus.com/ru/evebus-club/) – привилегии для участников программы, в том числе переносы броней без потерь ❌Экскурсовод: £20 с человека при условии набора группы от 6-ти участников *** 🎒Что взять с собой: ✅Воду/еду по желанию ✅Фотокамеру и зарядку для телефона ✅Хорошее настроение 🙂 ✳️Обо всем остальном мы позаботимся.

Join Hannah, Rob and London Wildish Club for our first walk of 2026. [If you wish to attend, you can find out more about Wildish Club here - with options to join for free or to become a supporter.](https://www.wildishclub.co.uk/join-the-club) We’ll start at Falconwood Station and thread our way through some of South East London’s lesser-known green spaces and woodland paths, taking in Oxleas Wood and Severndroog Castle along the way — a surreal Gothic hilltop tower that feels wonderfully out of place and very fitting for a winter wander. We’ll finish near Maryon Wilson Park, with the chance to say hello to the goats and pigs at the animal enclosure and hopefully even spot some of the resident deer, before ending at Charlton Station. There will be an optional pub stop afterwards for anyone who fancies warming up together. This is a flatter, steady-paced walk of around 9.6 km — more of a gentle winter ramble than a big hike. Expect some mud, crisp air, friendly people, and pauses for seasonal noticing along the way. We’re starting a little earlier than usual to make the most of the daylight. Any questions, just give us a shout. Meet point: 📍 Falconwood Station what3words: ///hint.hardly.bright ⏰ Meet from 10:45 for an 11:00 start 🚆 Southeastern trains from London Bridge / Cannon Street **What to bring** * Sturdy footwear (mud-friendly trainers or walking boots recommended) * Warm layers + waterproof jacket * Water + snacks/lunch * Your best winter nature facts * A dog friend, if you have one **Route info** Point-to-point route, finishing at Charlton Station Distance: \~9.6 km Terrain: mostly flat, woodland paths, parks and commons - expect some mud!
