Walking at Christchurch Riverside Park
on Tuesday 15th April 2025
Today eleven of us met at the car park and then headed off towards Hengistbury Head Nature Reserve. We were fortunate with the dry weather which allowed some of us to walk a bit further whilst a smaller group headed back to Tuckton Tea Rooms for our usual coffee/tea and cake.
As usual, there was plenty of chatting and bird spotting as we walked alongside the busy River Stour. There were some kites which fooled us into thinking they were birds also. Lots of activity on the river kept us entertained. even if we were at times just admiring the beautiful boats either moored or sailing.

Although I wasn't walking with the group today, a lovely walk was had by all with some photos below as evidence. The blue sky is amazing and dry underfoot made the walk most enjoyable.
From all accounts, the sun shone, the rain never appeared and the walk was rounded off at one of our favourite spots, The Potting Shed in Hyde.
Walking at Hengistbury Head on Tuesday 4th February 2025
Our group certainly braved the elements on this walk, as the photos show, another walk I missed. However, is there really anything to beat a coastal walk to blow off the cobwebs. Despite the weather, everyone participated, enjoyed the stroll and of course our refreshments at the Hiker Cafe.
Today there were lots of people who stayed at home which made this beautiful walk less busy....every cloud.
