Paradise to Purgatory - 13 July 19

I'm not sure if the bus driver had ever had so many passengers wanting to get a ticket to Paradise (the site of an old dis-used pub); but that was where we began this fine ramble. There were a lot of ups and downs as would be expected in the Stroud valleys, but luckily weather not too hot. The reward was a marvellous lunch stop on Swifts Hill, with butterflies all around and looking down at the buzzards gliding over the tree-tops. A great summer walk. Thank you, David and Liz.

Llandudno - 24-27 May 19

Our weekend in Llandudno started with a brisk walk up and around The Great Orme, with splendid views all around. A great introduction to the Snowdonia hill-walking to come, but also with fine sea views. North Wales at its' best.

A great club weekend - thank you Jenny and Carol.

Northleach - 16 January 19

An interesting start to the year - saw St. George in Hampnett Church and snow drops in January!

Thanks to leader Dave T.

Celebrations Walk - 12 December 18

Dave recently stepped down as Chairman at this years AGM. He has also just celebrated a 'significant birthday'. There was a great turn out for his walk on Cleeve Hill.

Thank you Dave, for all your hard work for the club.

Have a hair-raising halloween!

From a walkover near Cowley (thanks Mary).

Sapperton - 21 October 18

The final ascent back into Sapperton. What glorious weather!

Thanks to Jenny for leading.

Shurdington / Crickley Hill - 19 September 18

Chivalry from the retiring chairman on this mornings walk, very windy and warm with some steep descents after coffee at Crickley Hill cafe, the “ ups” were before coffee time.

Much Marcle - 27 August 18

We started by walking in cider country and onto the ridge, where we saw some magnificent views of the Malverns and could see right across glorious Herefordshire. Afterwards, a visit to the extraordinary Hellens Manor House to cap the day. Many thanks to Allan for a great walk.

Goodrich - 18 August 18

Goodrich is a great walking area in the beautiful Wye valley (with the added benefit of refereshments at the cafe afterwards). Sadly, no peregrines this time, but we still had some good weather and splendid views. 

Thanks to leaders Keith and Mary
