About Us
We are a walking club located in the North East of England close to Newcastle upon Tyne. We run a walking programme with planned walks every other Saturday throughout the year.

Walking distances range from around 10 miles up to 13 and the areas covered range from Northumbria to the Lake District and the Scottish Borders to the North Yorkshire Moors and Yorkshire Dales.

On walk days there are usually 3 planned walks depending on numbers of walkers out on the day. A single 54 seater coach from a local coach company is used and there are often seats available for individuals who have not pre-booked.

On walk days we begin the pick-ups at Tynemouth Baths in North Shields at 08:00am the coach then travels to additional pickup points at Monkseaton, Wellfield, Benton and Gosforth. The coach drops off walkers at the same points or other convenient locations on the return journey.

Walks cost £8.00 and membership for the year is £20.00.

History
The club began its first walks in January 1996. Up until December 2011 the club has held somewhere in the region of 405 Saturday walk days with a conservative estimate of 17000 walkers taking part.
