Strollers Social Walking Group – September/October 2025
Only four of us went on our September monthly Dawlish & District u3a Strollers walk. We managed to shelter from some light drizzle whilst exploring Walls Hill at Babbacombe. Luckily, we also managed to shelter at the cafe by the Cliff Railway later during a torrential downpour. From Walls Hill we enjoyed beautiful coastal views plus we saw lots of sloes on the blackthorn and some interesting blue flowers amongst the grass – possibly Devil’s Bit Scabious?
Our next Strollers walk is on Thursday October 9th. We’ll be catching the number 2 Newton Abbot bus from Dawlish at 12.46pm or Teignmouth at 12.59pm.
From the bus station we’ll head towards Asda, then take the off road path to Bakers Park. After walking part of the perimeter path in Bakers Park, we’ll walk on through meadow paths to explore Bradley Manor Woods
The walk is partly alongside the river on mainly level pathways; it’s not a circular walk so at the end of the wood we return the same way to Bakers Park .
The refreshment stop will be at either the cafe by the toilets in Bakers Park or if closed, at a cafe in Newton Abbot . Buses back home leave every 30 mins ie 15.45pm,16.15pm or 16.45pm.
New u3a Strollers are always welcome to join us on our monthly walks.
