Walking meetings in Main-Spessart: active and healthy together!

Walking meetings in Main-Spessart: active and healthy together!

Bahnhofsplatz, 97753 Karlstadt, Deutschland - In Bavaria something happens again! The city of Gemünden and the town of Karlstadt have decided to create a walking club that not only promotes movement, but also encounters and social conversations. The initiative, which was launched last April, has proven to be a success and attracts numerous interested parties. The BRK self-help office and the Main-Spessart district office organized the first four appointments, but due to the positive feedback, the participants wanted to continue the meetings on their own in the future. So if you want, you can just drop by and join in - a registration is not necessary!

The meeting point in Karlstadt is on the side of the bus station every Wednesday at 10 a.m. In Gemünden, the walk meets every Monday at 4:30 p.m. at the bus stop in front of the town hall. Here the route is spontaneously defined, depending on the mood of the participants. It is particularly important that you are good on foot and can walk for about an hour. If you want to equip yourself with weather -appropriate clothing, solid footwear and maybe a drink, you can do it very relaxed. Open hearts and heads are welcome at this walking meeting - no matter how old or fit you are!

just get together and be active

The walking meetings not only have a health aspect, but also aim to promote social interaction. Often it is the simple things that beautify everyday life. How nice is it to make new acquaintances on a cozy walk in a relaxed round and to refresh old friendships? The concept is child's play and above all uncomplicated - and that is exactly what is well received by the population.

Speaking of social support: If you need help in a different context, for example with furniture, you can contact the Caritas Association for the Main-Spessart district at any time. Used furnishings are conveyed to those seeking help via the "furniture exchange". Here furniture providers can register their free offers and the Caritasverband takes care of public relations. Interested parties can then contact the providers in order to clarify everything else, such as the transport and the time of handover. Here, too, everything is free as long as the furniture is intact - a real service closest!
