The Walk with Pub Lunch group

The popular group have been in existence for many years and shows no sign at all of waning given the on-going interest of a number of new members wanting to join.

There are two walks a month. The first being on the second Thursday, and the second on the fourth Tuesday of the month. The Thursday walks are the longer ones, and the Tuesday walks are shorter, and usually involve less of a gradient.

The walks are circular and start and finish at a pub for lunch. The walks usually take about 2.5 hours and are at a moderate pace with the aim to enjoy the views, and normally return to the pub for lunch at about 1.00PM. The locations vary from country, riverside or coastal path routes with occasional walks on Dartmoor. The terrain will vary greatly, and some routes will have steep ascents and descents. The walks are selected and planned by the Group Leader and communicated to walkers by email one week before.

Walkers should be reasonably fit and able to walk at least 5 miles and have the appropriate clothing and footwear for the conditions.

Anyone interested in joining the group should contact Chris White, the Walk Leader by clicking on Walk with Pub Lunch to send an email. Below is a list of some of our walks in 2022.
