Brighton and Hove Urban Rambling Meetup

All agesWed
📅 6 May 2026
📍 BN1 3XP

A ramble around the west of Brighton into Hove in search of some of the best and worst buildings of the last one hundred years. You can tell me your views and let me know which, if any, you prefer. We'll start at Brighton station and finish near Churchill Square beginning by heading west up Guildford Street towards our first stop at Montpelier Place then work our way through Hove then down to the seafront. We’ll aim to finish around 13:00 Meet at the front of Brighton station near the Travel Centre and toilets. Look for the chap in the blue and white baseball cap with a blue B on the front. Terrain: A few hills ! Toilets: At the beginning at Brighton station and on the seafront. If you'd like to help me pay the Meetup charges, I'll happily accept a two-pound donation at the end. Lots of people don't carry cash now so I do have an electronic solution subject to mobile phone signal!

We are the Brighton Outdoor Society, the hike, bike and other outdoor activities club! The group strives to cater for a range of levels and interests when it comes to walking and cycling located in and around Brighton and Sussex. Our group is open to all ages, singles and couples of differing racial/ethnic/cultural/religious/political backgrounds. We are united by our love of the outdoors. The group is not-for-profit, but in order to cover the meetup fees, we require a £5 annual membership payable when signing up to your 2nd event. All members should strive to be as reliable as possible, editing their RSVP to 'not going' in good time. No showing to an event is unacceptable and doing so twice will result in being removed from the group. Check out the 'Our Calendar' tab for all upcoming activities. We look forward to seeing you at one of our events soon! Disclaimer: Group organisers and assistant organisers assume no liability; take part in the activities at your own risk. By being a member of the group you hereby agree to assume all risks and liability related to or resulting from any and all group functions.

Sunday Walking And Talking (SWAT) – Brighton

Sun
📅 21 Jun 2026
📍 BN1 4BF

This is a group for people who enjoy a Sunday morning walk in the Sussex countryside in convivial company.  The walks will usually be roughly 3 to 5 hours in duration and will, where possible, be accessible via public transport. Walks can be either circular or linear but will feature at least some sort of refreshment point at the end of the route. Although the pace is not on a par with the Ramblers you should ensure before signing up for a walk that you can maintain a steady pace.  As a guideline, the Group usually walks at around two and a half miles per hour. Dogs are, in most instances, welcome but remember on many routes you may encounter livestock who can be particularly protective of their young in early summer (that’s enough disclaimers). Dogs are entirely the responsibility of their owners and it the owner's responsibility to ensure their dogs are on a lead when nearing roads or livestock.  The walks are free and open to all (even non-members) and any member of the group can suggest/organise a route – the more the merrier. Please be aware - There is always a risk of injury when participating in any outdoor activity so please be sensible and responsible. Always be prepared for adverse weather by bringing a waterproof jacket, warm clothes, and high energy snacks in cold weather and protection from the sun and heat in summer. Please wear sturdy footware. By RSVPing to a walk, you accept responsibility for your own safety, and agree that the Organisers and walk leader can be in no way held responsible for any injury incurred to yourself, your guests, or your or their dogs, in the course of the walk.
