About this Course

The Bowen Wanderers are a diverse group of seniors who meet to enjoy fresh air, exercise and congenial company each Thursday morning. Trails are scouted out ahead of time by our leader & listed monthly in the NHCS Newsletter with the relevant meeting place. Locations are between Ladysmith and Qualicum. Car pooling is encouraged. We walk all year but weather sometimes necessitates a change of destination to avoid flooded trails, icy paths or poor road conditions. If you are not sure if you are a stroller or a walker then a ‘pub lunch’ day often involves a shorter walk and is a good introduction to fellow Wanderers. Participants should have the ability to talk and walk at the same time. With suitable footwear and dressed appropriately for the season you will have a pleasant day out exploring - come and join us! Meet every Thursday morning at 9:30 am at Bowen Complex (S). If the destination in North (N) meet at Oliver Woods at 9:30 am. Please park away from the building. Wear suitable hiking boots or shoes. Bring your lunch unless otherwise noted. Return around 1 pm. Contact Al for more information 250-585-8271.
