Nordic Walking

Nordic Walking is an enhancement of ordinary walking - it makes something we can all do...twice as effective! Nordic Walking uses poles to in order add two major benefits to walking.

The use of poles means the upper body muscles are used as well as the legs
The poles help to propel the walking along - this means he/she works harder than usual yet the support given by the poles makes it feel easier!

Nordic Walking is a specific fitness technique and is not to be confused with trekking, hill walking or trail running as the poles are not planted in front of the walker/runner but in a specific way that increases the use of the upper body. It can be done by anybody, anywhere and does not require expensive equipment or clothing.
