SERVICE DETAILS
Monthly themed nature walks in the surroundings of Edinburgh.
We all know somebody who (we think) we will never get into a church but who shares our love for nature’s beauty and with whom we enjoy good conversations that may occasionally go beyond the usual every-day issues into life’s deeper mysteries.
If you enjoy walking through nature and one of your relatives, friends or neighbours meets the description above, our monthly walks may be something for you to consider.
The main intention behind these walks is to give us a breathing space away from our busy everyday life, enjoy good company in an environment that awakens our spiritual side and fosters free and meaningful conversations.
Some general facts about these walks:
- The walks will take place regularly EVERY 2nd SATURDAY of the month.
- Walks will vary in length between 2 hours to a full day.
- Walks will alter between woodlands, hills, beach or through the city.
- Walks will take place in any weather.
- Walks will always finish with refreshments or a meal.
- Some walks will require driving to get there. But we will always have Liberton Kirk as a meeting point to ensure that people without cars can join in the walks.
- The start time will vary depending on the location and length of the walk and the season. So please check the announcements in the church notices, Liberton Kirk website or emails (see more info below)
- Try to bring a friend who is not part of Liberton Kirk
