What we’re about
Hello and a warm welcome to the Lakeland Group. We are a friendly bunch of Long Distance walkers who enjoy social walks as much as challenge events (perhaps even more) and walk at a pleasant pace with walks that are long but not too crazy long!
We're part of the Long Distance Walkers Association and everyone is welcome. If you'd like to keep walking with us, we'd ask you to join the LDWA. Any questions, please message us!
