All our walks are FREE! However, we would appreciate a small donation towards the cost incurred for running our walks and events throughout the year. These include insurance, promotion, materials and our annual fee to keep our Walkers are Welcome status.
Thanks in advance!
What do you need?
Bring the following with you:
- water bottle, flask and any snacks.
- any medication you might need, including plasters;
- hand sanitiser;
- sun cream;
Note: many paths will be stony or muddy so please wear walking shoes or boots with non-slip soles. You may want to bring walking poles with you if you usually feel more comfortable with them.
After the walk we usually have lunch or a drink in one of the town’s welcoming cafés. Most of them now display our “Walkers are Welcome” stickers in their windows.

Really enjoyed your walk on 5th Nov. to Gilstead Crags. A big thank you to leaders to give up their time to plan and lead the walks. Jenny from Cottingley. Only moved to the area a few months ago so your walks really help me to get to know this beautiful area and to meet other walkers.
