Walking Club | Groningen

Connect International Event in Groningen

Date: Sunday 28 February 2021 at 14:00 hrs

Location: Be published later

Members Price: Free!

Non-Members Price: €5,00

 

Due to the new temporary regulations, we will walk in groups of 4 people. Therefore, registration is required for everyone by Saturday 18:00, including regular attendees.

The tour lasts about 1,5 hours, longer if people want to discuss the works of art more. We walk near the center, not right in the heart of the city.

The starting and returning place is Emmasingel, Kunstobject Ultra, big statue.
In addition to the sculptures, we stop in the parking lot and as we pass, we take a look  of a couple of modern buildings.

While sharing information about the artworks we can safely move in small groups so that the distance of 1.5 meters is maintained.

Walking is one of the most natural, easy, comfortable and safe ways to exercise the body. Taking a conscious walk brings great benefits to our physical, mental, emotional and energetic health. We invite you to be part of our new Walking Club in Groningen, every Sunday at 14:00 hrs. for 1-1,5 hours.  Accompanied by our volunteers we will walk through different parks and green areas of Groningen (each time in a different place, such as Stadspark, Noorderplantsoen, Zernike, Kardinge, Haren, Paterwoldsemeer, Oosterpark and Korreweg etc.).

In this way, in addition to giving you a healthy practice, it is also a way to socialize, enjoy and get to know beautiful places in our city and province.

Who can join: Anyone 21+ that would like to walk with the Connect International community. This walking club is for all levels of walkers – from the beginner to the fast and experienced. If you have health concerns, it is advised to see your health care practitioner (Huisarts) before starting.

Please bring your own snacks/drinks/water.

• Bring your own mat, towel and/or blanket.
