Volkswalking comes from the German term"Volksmarch" that literally means "a people's walk." It's a
noncompetitive outdoor walk, usually 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) through a scenic, historic, or interesting area
over a predetermined route. Volkswalks provide opportunities for people to see new countryside and
landmarks, meet other people, and collect incentive awards. It's not a contest.
The purpose of Volkswalking is to encourage people of all ages to participate in the healthful hobby of
hiking/walking/running on a noncompetitive basis. This makes Volkswalking an excellent recreational activity
for the entire family.
The San Angelo Volkswalkers is a local group affiliated with Texas Volkssport Association and American
Volkssport Association. The group meets periodically and sponsors planned group out of town walks and
also maintains two YRE (year round events). One local walk is through the state park the other along the
river. Information and map for the San Angelo State Park walk can be found in the Volkswalker box at the
south entrance gate house. Information for the River Walk can be picked up at the Town and Country located
at 635 S. Bell St.
