Didn't We Have Fun!

Bob's Munro Completion Walk - Aonach Beag and Aonach Mor

  May saw rather a lot of snow in Scotland and we could not have anticipated Bob's Munro completion walk being quite so exciting and dramatic as it turned out.  A large group of friends joined Bob on their annual trip to Scotland but this year with a special plan to help Bob finish his Munros. …

St Bega's Way August 2012

In a summer full of rain we were very lucky to have glorious sunshine throughout the three days of this walk. The walk took us from St Bees to St Bega's Church, beside Bassenthwaite Lake near Keswick.  We walked via Cleator Moor, Ennerdale Bridge for an overnight stop at the Shepherds Inn. …

Laggan Behind - Munro Bagging 2012

In the never fading hope that some of the group at least might eventually climb all the Munros, we set forth again at the beginning of July to tackle some of the Munros in the Loch Laggan, Ben Alder and Grey Corrie corridor of the A82.  We were blessed with really great weather all week which made…

Allerdale Ramble Nov 2011

11 of us have really enjoyed this, the third of our 2011 Tripple A challenge. Having tackled Allendale (St Isaac's Tea Trail) and Annandale (Moffat to Annan) earlier in the year, we had just to complete the Allerdale Ramble to get our tripple. We were blessed with absolutely amazing weather as you…

Annandale Way June 2011

The Annandale Way, running 54 miles south from the Head of Annandale, down to the Solway Coast, was the second of our 2011 Tripple A challenge.   Five of us took up the challenge and set out with a good forecast after lots of rain towards the end of June. Our base for the three nights was to be…

Isaac's Tea Trail Allendale 2011

For 2011 the group has adopted the 'Tripple A' Challenge - that is to walk the three tongue twisting routes visiting Allendale, Allandale and Allerdale, all quite close to our base but each offering very differing scenery.  Many thanks to Rob and Teresa for the initial idea of St Issac's Trail,…

Shropshire Lads and Lasses May 2011

(Photos to follow) Driving down the A49 towards Ludlow when headed for Mid-Wales I had often been inspired by the hills on either side of the road near Church Stretton.  So it was to the Group's good fortune that we had amongst our team Frank Cartwright who not only knew the hills well but also…

Lady Anne's Way 2010

A few of the group's members have recently enjoyed a four day break walking part of the Lady Anne's Way as part of this year's walks programme. We were blessed with excellent weather all the way which made for a fun trip.  Also our accommodation was good, with great food if a little too much of…
