This small friendly group meets every Monday, typically within half an
hour’s travel from Tunbridge Wells, for a 5 – 7 mile walk, starting around

We like to walk at a decent pace, on all terrains, and in most weathers.
Although we like to stay small, we currently have a couple of vacancies.

Prefer that new members have own transport.

STROLLERS
We walk for about 1hr- 1hr 15mins and approx. 2 miles. Some walks are in the countryside, not too many hills and may include one stile. If there will be a style the group is notified in advance.   We include a short rest about half way on the route.   A visit to a cafe (or mobile facility) is usually at the end of session but sometimes on route.  We will usually finish by midday.   Our pace is slow to medium.

WALK ON THE WILDSIDE
Our group members all have a shared interest in wildlife, nature in general and enjoy a walk. Usually the walks are about 3 -5 miles but no more. Although many of these walks are very local we do go further a field. Usually we can organise shared lifts to reduce the number of cars travelling to the same destination.
Meetings: Monthly Third Friday.
