New Summer Walking Guide: Tips for beach, hill and path walks

The summer months are when many of us have time to get out, head for the open road, breathe in the fresh air and enjoy the great outdoors.

With this in mind, health charity Walk the Walk has created a new Summer Walking Guide which covers different types of walking. No matter where you find yourself this summer – in the mountains, on the beach or even staying at home - this is an ideal, easy fitness plan to fit around any holiday or staycation.

• Sand/beach walking - more demanding and uses more energy that walking on a hard surface. A very intense workout in bare feet
• Hill walking – good for the heart, lungs and overall circulation, as well as for flexibility and strength. Walking slowly up hills is as beneficial as fast walking on the flat
• Path walking – in flat areas, great for walking at speed and developing good power walking technique
