What Is Hashing?

Hashing consists of following a trail laid in flour. It is noncompetitive and caters for all levels of fitness. ‘Regroups’ are set to allow slower hashers to catch up before we all set off again. 

We are a family - and dog - friendly hash and have members ranging in age over seventy years.

We meet at a different pub at 11 a.m. every Sunday and set off to run, jog or walk around the wonderful Dorset countryside. The ‘Hash Diary’ page at left gives details of upcoming venues and social events.

What else do Hashers do?

We have many local social events such as cycle treasure hunts, parties and B-B-Qs. For example, we celebrated our 20th birthday over the weekend of 22/23/24 June 2007 - please click here to see the pictures.

We also organise social and hashing trips in the UK and abroad. In October 2007 two dozen Hardy’s Hashers went to Spain for a week of hashing and social activities - click here to see the pictures.

Can I Try It?

Your first Hash is free so there is no reason not give it a try! Thereafter it is one pound per hash or twelve pounds per half-year.

You should bring a change of clothes and shoes in case it is muddy underfoot.

The ‘Diary’ page at left has links to details of other local, national and international hashes and also information on events around the world.

What’s The History Behind It?

Hardy's Hash House Harriers are a part of a long, proud and worldwide Hashing tradition. There are over 1,700 Hash clubs spread over every country in the world. Wikipedia has an excellent article on hashing and its origins in the 1930s, please click here
