3. Walkers, Hikers & Nature Lovers

If you want to combine a pleasant walk, communication with nice people and practicing your command of English, join Walkers, Hikers & Nature Lovers.

Members of this club meet every Sunday to make a one-day walk in the Moscow region. The group of hikers goes by train from Moscow for 30-40 minutes (max 1 hour). Then they walk in the forest, breathe fresh air, enjoy sightseeing and communicate both in English and in Russian. Usually they visit some places of interest such as museums, churches and so on. During the hike there is a break for lunch. They come back to Moscow at about 17-19 p.m. (the time can vary). The distance they walk is about 10-15 km.

      Group hike at a normal pace so that an average person can walk without difficulty. Rain or shine, they don't use any other transport besides the train. They don't need to have any special abilities or special equipment for the walk.

This week Walkers, hikers and nature lovers meet at the center of the platform inside Begovaya metro station (purple line) at 8:30 (Please dont be late - the train departure is at 8:53) on Sunday, November 14 to hike from Odintsove to Shchukinskaya metro station(28 kms).
