Joining walks with Medway Ramblers is an easy way to discover the area
without having to worry about planning a route or getting lost and is a
good way to keep fit.
Medway has some outstandingly attractive walks which many local
residents are unaware of and Medway Ramblers Group could introduce you
to them. We also walk in the beautiful areas of Kent and Sussex
although rarely further away than a thirty miles radius from
Medway. Our walks vary in length between five and ten miles with
the occasional walk that might be longer or shorter. The walk
programme always tells you the length of the walk as well as giving some
idea of the stiles or hills you may meet. Medway walks are always
at a comfortable pace that an average fit person could manage. You
will find the people who walk with us are a friendly group who enjoy a
good chat as they walk. Except on the shortest walks we have a
coffee or a snack-break/picnic and on longer walks sometimes both!
Our walks are mostly on Sundays starting in the morning. Starting
times can be found in the programme along with the name of the walk
leader, the starting point and a contact number if you want to find out
more about the walk or introduce yourself before hand.
The Group also organises a variety of social events. There is an annual
Bat and Trap game (What's Bat & Trap? A remarkably easy going
traditional Kentish pub game.). Other events include visits to
breweries and vineyards as well as occasional talks by specialists and
professionals on walking related matters. During the summer we
arrange group walking holidays in conjunction with trusted professional
organisations which you are welcome to join.
Medway Ramblers co-operate with Medway Council in organising footpath
audits and footpath clearing but you don't have to take part in this in
order to walk with the Group. We will be happy to see you to just join
us in the walks that interest you.
