Strollers Social Walking Group – July/August 2025
There were just four walkers on our last Dawlish & District u3a Strollers walk in July (though we did receive a few apologies as usual). The weather was hot and sunny so we did our best to mostly walk in shade. We walked down Eastcliff via the community orchard, walled garden and the Dell where we stopped to chat with Jacqui B, one of the gardening volunteers. Once on Teignmouth seafront, we decided the weather was too hot to venture further along the seafront and Back Beach area, so instead we enjoyed cool, restorative drinks at the Kings Arms pub in French Street.
Our next Dawlish & District u3a Strollers walk is on Thursday August 14th; a walk chosen by one of our regular Strollers.
We are catching the number 2 Exeter bus from Teignmouth at 1.09pm or Dawlish at 1.25pm.
We’ll get off the bus at the far end of Starcross then walk along the coast road by the railway line to Powderham Church. From there we follow the footpath to our refreshment stop at the Turf Lock pub alongside the Exeter Canal. Afterwards we’ll be walking through the RSPB reserve to catch our bus home from the stop near the Swans Nest pub at Exminster.
NB new Dawlish & District u3a members are always welcome to join us on our monthly walks.
