The frequency of our walks is changing. From March 2026 we are reverting to holding one monthly walk on the first Sunday of the month, our Tuesday walks will discontinue. Here is our schedule until July 2026.
Feel free to join us, no need to book, no charge and at the walk leaders discretion, well behaved dogs welcome.
We do not often have to cancel our walks due to bad weather conditions; however, should this be the case, please check the website elhamvalleywalkers.co.uk/our-next-walk/. A notice will be posted 12 hours in advance if the walk leader considers that conditions will not be enjoyable.
