Welcome to the Singles Outdoor Club Naturist Walks Home Page
Introduction
Yes, it is possible to enjoy walking in the remoter parts of
the countryside of South East England in the nude. The fact is
that few people wander further than 200 yards from a car park.
We often walk for several hours without meeting anybody and -
weather permitting - have been able to remain nude for 80% or
more on many of our walks which range from 8 to 12 miles.
The object of these walks is to enjoy the exhilaration of walking
without the encumbrance of clothing. We are not planning to make
any sort of political point, or to make any sort of challenge
to other members of the public. It is our policy to carry "cover-up"
garments which we put on when we cross a road, see other walkers
approaching us from a distance, or realise that we are about
to pass farmers working in their fields. Just occasionally we
meet someone without warning, and just greet them with a cheerful
"good afternoon." As far as we know we have not given
offence to anyone in the 14 years that our walks programme has
been in existence.
The walks programme for this year is now prepared and an outline
is published on this site. If you would like to take part in
these walks why not join SOC now, and you will receive full details
of the walks as well as a wealth of information about other club
activities. SOC forms an excellent opening into naturism for
single people, but couples and married folk are also very welcome.
You will find an application form on the main SOC website.
About
our walks:
Each
of these walks is between 8 and 12 miles in length: you need
to be reasonably fit! They are planned in reasonably unpopulated
areas.
We hope to be able to walk most of the way in the nude. We cannot
however guarantee that the weather will be warm enough for this!
It is not our intention to cause anyone any offence, or to challenge
the law in any way on these walks. Therefore please bring something
that you can do a quick cover-up with!
Also please come well equipped with strong walking boots or shoes,
a rucksack, a picnic lunch, plenty to drink in warm weather and
suitable rain wear and warm clothing when it is not so good.
If you would like more details please E-mail: SOC Walks Organiser , but it is essential that you give your "naturist credentials".
All participants
are encouraged to join the Singles Outdoor Club in which couples
are also welcome.
