We meet once a month at 11am the wave side of the Riverfront. We walk across Newport for a couple of hours taking in the green spaces Newport has to offer and then come back to the Riverfront.

All are welcome. Some of the walks are easy and on the flat, but as Newport is quite hilly its difficult to avoid uphill walks. We walk regardless of the weather. We are unofficial so anyone who comes along must be responsible for themselves.

Wear daps, bring water and meet some nice people exploring Newport city's green spaces.
