Elevate Netwalking, North Wales

Your host at Elevate Netwalking, North Wales - Hi, I’m Karen. I am a coach who loves to take group coaching sessions outdoors, using our surroundings, movement and nature to support new perspectives and thinking. I am based in Ruthin, Denbighshire and enjoy being outdoors in the surrounding hills or forests. I recognise and appreciate the huge reciprocal benefits that are to be had by spending time in nature, and being fully connected with the surroundings. Sharing the experience and connecting to like-minded people has benefits lasting far beyond the activity itself.

I am an advocate for coaching, having first trained over 10 years ago during my role as a senior manager within a chemical manufacturing company. I strive to make coaching available and accessible to everyone and by incorporating it into the networking events means there’s a gentle introduction to group coaching and all it’s benefits, in a relaxed and non-rushed environment. The experience is different to the traditional networking events, allowing a flow and steady pace, where walking side by side offers an ease to the conversations. The silences are also powerful in this space allowing for some real impactful thinking.

The people who attend these events leave, having benefited greatly, not only from meeting new connections and networking, but also from some powerful coaching activities and time spent outside walking in nature. Time spent away from the office environment and away from screens provides increased and long-lasting health and wellbeing benefits.

What makes our Elevate Netwalks different? Well, we throw in a bit of coaching magic. As you enjoy the great outdoors, we weave in guided sessions about a particular topic related to you and your business to spark some self-reflection, personal growth, and maybe a few 'aha' moments. And in the process, you build strong connections with other business owners that you don't get from regular networking. We ditch the small talk and get straight to the conversations that matter for you and your business.

It's a laid-back, fun-filled stroll in nature with others who feel the same way as you. Where your steps aren't just about movement; they're steps toward mental clarity and feeling energised.

We're all about inclusivity and giving back. Whether you're a seasoned hiker or just starting your wellness journey, our Netwalking community is open to all. It's a judgment-free zone where everyone is welcome, and each step is a step toward a more connected, healthier, and happier you.

We also donate 10% of the ticket sales to local charities supporting people and planet. My chosen charity for 2026 is Wilderness Tribe which was set up following the growing need for people to reconnect with each other and nature. Harnessing the power of nature and connections to overcome social isolation, improve wellbeing and build peoples resilience.

So, if you're craving meaningful connections, want to challenge your mindset and you're ready to let nature work its wonders, join us for an Elevate Netwalking experience that's all about connecting to yourself and others in nature.

What is this route like? Loggerheads Country Park is a beautiful, wooded river valley with dramatic cliffs and outcrops and is ideal for a short walk.

There are several well-marked trails and easily accessible pathways, and these will be varied accordingly, but will generally be within the woodland and along the river Alyn. With some stunning viewpoints over towards Moel Famau in the Clwydian Range.
