Current Events:

For all walks, please make sure you have decent footwear (especially when it’s been wet) and suitable clothing: all walks will go ahead unless the weather is really bad (we’ve cancelled just one walk in the last 6 years) but do check if you’re in any doubt or want more information. If conditions necessitate the route of walks may need to change at short notice.

Our traditional New Year’s Day walk (6¾ miles) will start at 10:00 at Church House on the morning of 1 January 2025 and end with seasonal refreshments - make it the first event in your 2025 diary!

Please let us know if you are coming so we can ensure there are sufficient refreshments.

Join us for a leisurely short walk of no more than 4 miles. There’s no need to book, just turn up.

As a short walk, there is not a programmed refreshment stop, but there is usually a number of short halts for people to collect and catch breath, so if you want to bring something to eat and/or drink, there will be opportunity to consume it. The walk will be led at a reasonable pace - we do not rush, but we do need to make progress for the group as a whole; if you have any questions about our speed, please raise them with us.

See a report from our October and November short walks.

In many cases, but not always, at the end of the walk there is an option to participate in refreshments at a local cafe or similar.

Join us on the second Tuesday of the month for a walk no more than two miles and on good and even surfaces: we will make it clear in the email if this is not the case. The pace will be steady with regular pauses to catch our breath.

Afterwards there will be an opportunity to have some refreshments at a nearby hotel/cafe (bring your purse).

As the 2024 plan draws to a close we are developing a 2025 plan (so subject to change!). As time goes by you will be able to see how the walks went on our Event History page.
