What to Expect:
-------------------------------------------------
Medium walks are generally between 6 and 8 miles (10-13 km) long, and tend to be at a reasonably gentle pace and always include a stop for a pub lunch. Long walks are slightly more challenging and are between 10 and 12 miles (16-19 km) long and don't include a pub lunch but instead stop for a packed lunch along the way. At 16:00 all the groups meet back at the coach and return back to the University, arriving no later than 18:00.
-------------------------------------------------
Costs:
-------------------------------------------------
£12 per walk for Outdoor Soc Members
£14 per walk for non Outdoor Soc Members
£15 for membership for the year! If you're not a member, we will have to ask you for the extra £2 on Sunday.
-------------------------------------------------
What to Bring:
-------------------------------------------------
We run both medium and long walks - if you choose the medium walk, please bring money for a pub lunch, as not all places take card payments, and if you choose to do the long walk, please bring a packed lunch, as there is no guarantee that you'll be able to buy food when we get there. Please wear appropriate clothing for a walk in the Yorkshire countryside! Walking boots are best, but if you don't have any, sturdy trainers or wellies should be fine. Also please avoid wearing jeans, because they get very unpleasant to wear when it rains. As this is Yorkshire, you should always be prepared for rain, no matter HOW sunny it looks, so remember to bring waterproofs or other appropriate wet weather gear.
-------------------------------------------------
Where to Meet:
-------------------------------------------------
We meet near the white benches outside the Roger Kirk Centre in James College at 8.45am. Arrival time back to campus varies depending on where we are walking but we're normally back between 5-6pm.
