Meeting in the Cathedral grounds on Saturday 4 Feb 2023 to depart at 1200, finishing in the fan zone at Brunton Park around 1315.
The walk will be led by volunteer and Blues fan Craig Milne, who is affiliated to the mental health charity Talk Hub.
The walk will be leisurely, suitable for all ages and abilities but will include some steps. No specialist walking gear or hiking boots are needed, just wear shoes comfortable for walking in.
Craig explained: “We can all do our bit to help climate change.
"Walking is great physical exercise and gives a chance to get some head space and connect with nature. It is a fantastic way to help to get us moving while exploring our great city.”
Supporter Liaison Officer Simon Clarkson added his support by saying: “We have seen the success of these walks.
"They provide so many benefits for the climate as well as our own health. We hope this walk will be the start of something we can do regularly and look forward to what will be an enjoyable experience.”
