Join us for a weekend of relaxation in the countryside, just 20 minutes from Christchurch. Enjoy Nordic walking in the company of our experienced and qualified ANWA Nordic Walking trainer.

Nordic walking, developed in Finland as summer training for cross country skiers is one of the most adaptable exercises around, giving a low impact, time efficient total body workout.

Here at Silverstream Cottage our trainer will develop a personalised programme to suit you, irrespective of your age or fitness level.

Using Leki Nordic Walking telescopic poles you will work more muscles and use more calories than normal walking, but it will feel easier and less tiring as the effort is spread across your whole body rather than just your legs.
