Looking to escape to the wilderness at the weekends? I’m Phil, a walk leader with the Ramblers Association and I’m thrilled to launch this new motivational hiking group on Meetup! If you’re interested in regular 8 to 12 mile hikes in the Yorkshire Dales, Teesdale and Weardale, all led with a generous dose of healthy banter and ending in the pub or cafe, then read on for the obligatory small print: DISCLAIMER: The aim of this group is to promote hiking events for fitness and social purposes (not for profit). All such events are led in a voluntary capacity and all members participate at their own risk. This is a private group and not affiliated to the Ramblers Association (no insurance cover). GRADE OF WALKS: All walks are ‘Moderate’ which for this group typically means: routes are mainly low gradient with some medium to steep ascents. distances are normally between 8 and 12 miles. sections of paths are likely to be muddy and/or uneven. it may include crossing a shallow stream or similar if safe to do so. * waterproof walking boots are essential. PACE: The average pace is 3 miles per hour. Lunch stop is usually 30 mins (depending on weather). Water stops as necessary. DOGS: Dogs will not be permitted if significant livestock is expected to be present that can roam across the right of way for substantial parts of a planned walk. If dogs are permitted they must not pose a danger or nuisance to other people and animals. They must be appropriately disciplined and under direct control by their owner.
