Welcome, Fellow Walkers!

Hi there and welcome to the Scottish Hillwalkers and Activities Group.

This group was founded to be run by the members for the members and we'll be doing a variety of walking - from single Munros, to multiple Munros, scrambling over ridges, weekends away and a selection of low level longer walks, pub walks and summer evening walks. We also have a dedicated core of rock climbers - with weekly meetups at the Glasgow Climbing Centre, occasional trips to Ratho and other venues as well as outside rock climbing when the weather is good. There is a weekly cycling meetup too and whatever else we feel like organising as a group!

Note that these are not "led walks" with a professional guide. Think of these more as going walking with a group of friends (and while you may not be friends with everyone at the start of the walk, but you will be by the end of it!) - everyone has to take responsibility for themselves as well as for each other, and everyone has a role to play (be it driving to the start, helping with the navigation on the walk or bringing the jaffa cakes!).

The group is completely free to join, but we do occasionally ask for a voluntary donation to help cover the cost of having the group on Meetup.com.

If you have some ideas for walks and activities or perhaps once you have been on a few events, would like to get involved in organising a walk, please feel free to get in touch with me.

For more details about the group, check out our About Us pages.

Look forward to seeing you on a walk soon,
