Walks are graded to suit different levels of ability and experience.  Our aim is to ensure that everyone who comes walking with us has an enjoyable day out. You are encouraged to contact the named person for advice and information about the length and difficulty of the walk beforehand, in order to ensure that the walk is within your capability.  If you have any doubts about your fitness try A and B walks initially.  The group will walk at a pace close to the pace of the slowest walker, so please be mindful of this and always keep those behind in view, particularly on misty days.

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
