11am wave side @RiverfrontArts to Caerleon… led by @Sdwilliams72
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.

Walk to the sea from the seawall in Nash...yes out to sea!
Meet at 11am John Frost Square.
**Wellies a must** we did this walk a few weeks ago and got very muddy...
Will either take number 44 to Nash College and walk to the seawall from there (45 mins) or car share to the seawall...depends on who turns up on the day.
We usually stop for a pub lunch ... but you may prefer to bring along a packed lunch... that's fine...
weather update: sunny and 12 degrees
