Details Walks are usually 6 – 8 miles at a reasonable pace, led by a member of the group. Terrain may vary. Lifts to our out-of-the-way places can be arranged. Usually walks will end near a café or pub. These walks are offered all the year round, on 1st Friday and 3rd Thursday of every month.

Venue Outdoors
Contact joinagroup@brightonandhoveu3a.org
Details We are a friendly, welcoming group who walk 10 – 12 miles twice a month. We aim at a reasonable pace in order to cover the distance in daylight through the winter months but we tend to be slow uphill. We carry a picnic lunch and meeting points are generally accessible by public transport. From time to time we tackle a series of walks to cover longer trails.
