Walk with Us

The regular walkers in the group, ie, walk with the group twice a month or more; number about 50. The numbers participating in any walk are 6-8 to 20-24.

The January - June 2012 Walks Programme has been prepared but we are always looking for new ideas and anybody who wishes to try their hand at walk leading. We have a nucleus of very experienced leaders who undertake walks and are also prepared to help anybody who feels as though they might benefit from support on their first outing. All walks are thoroughly reconnoitred beforehand and the venues are local, Peak District, Snowdonia, Shropshire Hills and many more.

The walks are usually a full day out with stops for coffee/tea and a packed lunch break approximately half way. Saturday and Sunday are the usual walking days; but in the summer there is often an evening walk on a Thursday from a local pub and is designed to give the opportunity to socialise.

A recent innovation has been figure of 8 walks which gives people the opportunity to walk on further after lunch if they feel so inclined.  Check the programme for such walks. The first loop is generally a leisurely walk to the lunch break followed by further moderate walk to complete the second loop in the afternoon.
