EAST London residents spent their Sunday at the Areena Riverside Resort hiking the 10km trail as part of the weekly Let’s Hike event.
Organiser Karen McLaren said the purpose of the day was for residents to connect with nature, while getting exercise in an environment that they would not normally visit by themselves.
“The hiking [event] was started in February 2011 as a replacement to border Outdoor Adventure.
“We have a monthly programme of different walks from day walks to , weekend hikes and even eight-day full backpack trails,” she said.
“There is no age restriction, all walks are determined by a person’s own abilities.
“Our next hike will be on Sunday at Nature’s Rest where we will take on a 7km trail.” McLaren said.
