We are in the process of putting together a schedule to cover the next 6 month period from October 2026 to March 2027. Details of walks already planned up until the end of September 2026 can be seen below.

We walk on the 1st Thursday and 3rd Tuesday of each month. The starting time is 10.00am from a car park - normally a pub - and we return there for lunch. Walks are circular, taking about 2½ hours and covering about 5-6 miles.

They are planned and led by members.

In the warmer months we sometimes do longer more adventurous walks, listed below under the title *Special*.

On the walk

All members walk at their own risk.

Sometimes a group photograph is taken which could end up displayed on this webpage. If you prefer not to be in them please stand to one side.

Want a shorter walk?

The Intermediate Walking group that offers walks of around 4 miles for group members. See the group Walking Intermediate more details.

Strollers start at 10.30am and last 1–1½ hours and covering 2 to 3 miles. See the separate Walking Strollers page for full details.

Walk Programmes

Information on future walks is kept updated on this page and it is recommended that members check here regularly as new information is added on a regular basis.
