Go on give us a go - Go for a Walk
This is our 118th season of walks
The Class undertakes rambles into the countryside on regular Saturdays throughout the year and on Tuesday evenings during the summer months. We walk within the the West Pennine Moors, Ribble Valley and the Forest of Bowland, exploring the paths in woods, over moors and alongside rivers of the area. WE occasionally venture into the Yorkshire.
The rambles range in length from 5 miles to 11 miles so that it is easy to choose one within your capability.
