About us
We're a group of friendly people from in and around Northampton who enjoy walking, socialising, and exploring the great outdoors. We welcome people of all ages and aim to provide a comprehensive walking programme and to be as inclusive as possible.
We usually offer half day walks on Wednesdays and Saturdays and more strenuous full day walks on Fridays and Sundays. There are also shorter walks on the first Tuesday of each month. To see our full programme visit www.northamptonra.org.uk
So, if you like walking and want to get a bit fitter, or would like to try out a new activity whilst meeting new friends along the way, you've found the right group!
We will welcome you on any walk; just choose one suitable for you. RSVP to one of our walks on Meetup then just turn up and introduce yourself to the walk leader. The published time is when we leave so please turn up at least 10 minutes before in order to get kitted up.
Non members are welcome to join up to three walks before becoming members of the Ramblers.
