Best River Port Stamford Near Me

4worldlovers: Join Friends for our monthly hikes. Our hikes are on the first Monday of every month. We call these hikes Plikes as we borrow the term from the Swedes who combine jogging and plocka upp (to pick up) to obtain plogging. Thus Hiking plus plocka upp, gets us Pliking.

Our Plikes run about 2 hours and are to the less used areas of the park. This allows us the opportunity to explore, check on the status of less used trails, and tidy up as we go.

We meet at 9:00 am at the bridge on Merribrooke Lane in Stamford. Please bring gloves and a small trash bag. We hope that you can join us.
