Walking Programme Jan – Apr 2023

Our aim is to ensure that everyone who comes walking with us has an enjoyable day out. If you have any doubts about your fitness try A and B walks initially. 

Walk Grades Explained

A – Easy – mainly coastal or on forest tracks. Little or no climbing involved.  Around 3-4 hours duration.  Suitable for most reasonably active people.

 B – Moderate – Can involve climbing (and descending) up to 500m, on rough wet terrain with no defined paths.  Usually 4-5 hours duration.  Suitable for experienced walkers with a good level of fitness.

 C  –  Strenuous – Can involve in excess of 600 – 1000m of climbing and descening on rough, steep and wet terrain with a duration of between 5 and 7 hours walking.  Suitable for experienced hillwalkers with a good level of fitness

The group will walk at a pace close to the pace of the slowest walker, so please be mindful of this particularly if you are a faster walker.
