Wellington Nordic Walkers

Welcome to the home of free Nordic Walking in the Wellington region. This club has been set up for those of us who have taken lessons with a Nordic Walking instructor and are looking for  a regular opportunity to get out and use the newly gained skill. Most importantly it is a chance to meet new walkers and have some fun.... We plan to explore a lot of the walks that the Wellington region has to offer. All levels of fitness will be catered for. If you would like to be informed of our walks please register on this site and we will email you with details of our walks. Or if you have a walk that you would like our members to know about just let us know.

These courses teach the basic Nordic Walking technique and are aimed at all fitness levels.

Beginners courses run for 4-5 weeks with one 60 minute session per week in  Petone or Eastbourne. A group session costs $15,- per person which includes the usage of poles during the class. One-on-one sessions are also available.
