Getting Started
The SBS is a relatively small club. It is best if you have been walking for a while and want to add a new dimension to this activity. It is also best if you join with a friend who walks at a similar pace. This will allow you to try many of the year round walks together. Club members see each other at the walking events, or at the club meetings and social events.
Take a walk and see the worldOne of the many benefits of Volksmarching is the opportunity to explore parts of cities, parks, small towns and quaint neighborhoods that you often miss by car. Traveling to another city and want to get off the beaten path? Easy. Just find the local club in the Starting Point, which lists all the clubs and their walks in the U.S. and Canada, email the contact person and you are on your way to a new adventure! Our members have walked in all 50 states, plus Germany, Sweden, Estonia, South Africa, Australia, and British Columbia. In 2011 a number of us will be going to an international walking event in Turkey. Want to come along?
If you are ready to get out of the gym, or off the couch, and find a new avenue for fitness, we would love you to join us on the trail.
