Strollers Social Walking Group – May/June 2026

There were just Richard and I on our May Strollers walk, though we also had about six apologies. We walked from Ware Barton, down the lane opposite the bus stop where we spotted lots of rosy garlic in bloom on the grass bank. After crossing the footbridge we walked on down into Kingsteignton then alongside the leat, then on via the churchyard past the old mill and on along the footpath to Greenhill Way. We continued on through Hackney Marshes to our mid walk refreshment stop at the riverside Passage House Inn. After a refreshing lager we walked back to the bus stop via field edge footpaths. The bus was late and there were no seats available until two young ones thankfully stood up for us oldies to sit.

Our next Dawlish & District u3a Strollers walk is on Thursday June 11th.

Please catch the number 2 Exeter bus from Teignmouth at 13.09pm or the same bus from Dawlish at 13.25pm to Langdon Hospital.

We’re walking up the hospital boundary footpath out into the countryside, then on down Port Road across to Dawlish Country Park, then on to our refreshment stop at Hope Church Community café. There are twice hourly buses home from the nearby Sainsburys bus stop.

New u3a walkers are always welcome to join us on our monthly walks.
