Why walking?
Walking, and especially walking in groups, is the perfect activity for a person’s physical, mental, and social well-being. Connecting with people in your community and moving your body means you are better able to do the things you love.
What is NS Walks?
Our dream is for all Nova Scotians to get out walking. We have friendly, gentle, weekly walking groups to help less active adults in Nova Scotia enjoy the benefits of walking. Our walking groups are the perfect place to make new friends and get that extra little motivation to walk more. You can find walking groups all throughout the province. NS Walks groups strive to be inclusive of all abilities.
What We Do
Walking group leader recruitment, training and ongoing support.
