What to Expect Along the Way
Our walk today will take us on a 6-mile walk through the sand dunes of Kenfig Nature reserve and along the coastal path to Rest Bay where we’ll stop off for a mid-way break at the cafe. We’ve classed this as a grade 3 walk. Underfoot it’ll be sand, grassy paths and, if you venture onto the beach, some pebbled areas. There are no steep inclines nor descents and no stiles to navigate.
Arrival
We recommend arriving at least 15-20 minutes before the walk/event start time. It’s a great opportunity to meet the event leaders, register and catch up with your fellow Marauders before we start.
Parking
Parking is available directly outside the main building, chargeable upon exit at £4.00 for the day.
Registration
You will be asked for your name, your mobile telephone number along with an emergency contact name and number. If you have any relevant medical conditions or medication that may be relevant to declare, please pass this information to the event leader during registration.
If you already have your Marauders digital ID, great – we’ll just scan you in. If not, you can pre-register and get your very own QR code beforehand here –
Be Prepared – Health, Wellbeing & Weather
Participation in this event is entirely at your own risk, and it is your sole responsibility to ensure you are physically fit and well enough to take part. This includes being appropriately dressed for the event/weather and carrying any personal or emergency medication you may require during the activity.
Dogs
Well behaved dogs are welcome on this walk but must be carefully supervised at all times and kept on a lead when necessary. We will be walking across a golf course and in fields with livestock roaming free.
What to bring
Grade 3 Walk
Designed for 4–5 miles involving mixed terrain and some hills.

Volunteering support
This event requires some volunteering support to make it run smoothly and we’d love to hear from you if you are able to lend a hand on the day. Thank you!
Walk & Talk Support Team
Our walk leaders will need help on the day to welcome and organise the attendees and to keep an eye on the group throughout the day. This may involve taking the register, being a walkie-talkie holder for the day, nominating yourself as a first aider or being a front or back-marker. If you can help, just turn up a little earlier and make yourself known to the walk leader on the day.
Befrienders
It’s natural for some guys to be anxious when they first turn up at a Marauders event and so we’d love to have some of our more regular guys to keep an eye out for new attendees and to make them feel welcome. If this is something that you can help us with, please make yourself known to the event leader either before or on the day.
