Walking in Hartlepool

Step into wellbeing with Active Hartlepool’s walking programmes.

Walking is one of the easiest ways to get active, boost your mood, and enjoy the outdoors. Our Wellbeing Walks make it simple and sociable - you’ll walk with others, feel safe, be supported, and have fun along the way.

Why join our wellbeing walks?

  • A natural mood booster
  • Suitable for all fitness levels
  • Great way to meet new people
  • Helps improve health and wellbeing

You don’t need to walk far or fast to feel the benefits, just getting outside is good for your mind and body.

Volunteer with us

Love walking? Share your passion and become part of our volunteer team as a Walk Leader.
Without the 25,000 volunteers who give their time to the Ramblers we just wouldn’t exist!

Walk leaders play a vital role in our Ramblers Wellbeing Walks programme, leading safe, friendly walks that make walking accessible for everyone. Thanks to volunteers like you, we can offer hundreds of walks locally and thousands across Britain each year.

Volunteering is a great way to:

  • Give something back to the community
  • Meet like-minded people
  • Learn new skills
  • Lead walks and inspire others

We coordinate health walk schemes in Hartlepool and rely on volunteers to make them happen. Interested?
