Type of walking?
The Nottingham Ramblers walk every Sunday. One week a coach takes us to Derbyshire, the next Sunday we walk locally.
On local walks we car share (you don’t need to have a car) or use public transport (you will be surprised by the amount of lovely walks just a bus ride away).
Coach walks pick up at Trent Bridge 9.15am and Maid Marion Way 9.30am.
We usually start walking around 11am, have pub/tea or toilet stop mid way and finish around 5pm - this varies according to the time of year.
How far?
This sounds great - you are thinking - but how far do they walk?
When we use the coach we have a choice of three or four walks 6-13 miles, gentle - to strenuous. Bear in mind that even a gentle walk in Derbyshire will requires more effort than a walk around your local park. There will be stiles, uneven paths and a few slopes. However if you are ‘Iron Man’ standard we can do that too !!!!
The coach fare is £8 or £9 depending on numbers and distance - and you have to book.
Non-members pay £2 more.
See our walk programme for the lovely walks we are doing in the next six months.
Now if all this sounds too big a step you can join us on a local walk- no booking required.
For car sharing walks we meet at the Robin Hood Statue by the Castle and if it’s a public transport walk at the bus stop. There is only one walk - 7-9 miles and the pace and terrain are fairly gentle.
How do I start?
You don’t have to be a member of the Nottingham Ramblers to start walking with
us but we hope you will join after a few walks.
And now for the technical bit! You will need walking boots, wet weather gear, a packed lunch and drinks.
