Walking Club: Frequently Asked Questions:

What type of clothing should I wear & what should I bring with me on a walk?

If you are partaking in a walk, we advise you to wear clothing you can move comfortably in

plus supportive footwear. Wear layers on colder/wetter days. Also bring a drink, a packed

lunch and snacks, as we cannot guarantee that you’ll be able to purchase food at walk desti-

nation. Always bring money along in case you need to pay for tickets etc. How do we buy tickets to destinations?

The Walking club has found over the years that the best way of purchasing tickets is with one

person buying a group ticket and then being reimbursed on the day. Please note we cannot

use senior railcards as this causes too many problems with difference in price of tickets. What if I’d like to stay at the walk destination?

If we are heading to a destination and you wish to stay on at the end of the arranged walk,

you must tell the group leader before they purchase the group ticket. You will have to buy a

separate ticket which may cost more.

If however you’re included in the group ticket you will have to return at the same time as the

group that you have travelled to the destination with.
