East Kilbride
Our Club was formed 30 years ago and caters for people who enjoy the pleasures of the open air in the beautiful hills of Scotland. We offer graded, guided walks in the Scottish countryside.
Our guides take groups of similar ability on a variety of planned & reccied 2 level walks in the Scottish hills.
We are affiliated to The Ramblers Association
All About Us!
The Club walks every alternate Saturday throughout the year. Normally on each Club outing there are two walks, a high and a low level, but at certain times of the year we also have club walks when we walk as one group. This is usually a low level walk such as a coastal walk. The club also organises weekends away & holidays abroad.
Our coach leaves at 8 a.m. from the car park at the Murray Owen Centre in East Kilbride. The sign-on for each walk takes place in Our Lady of Lourdes Church hall at 7.30 pm on the Thursday following a walking Saturday. This is an opportunity to chat to other members over a cup of tea/coffee, & find out more information about the next walk.
On some occasions there will be a quiz night, speaker or photography competition & we also organise navigation training evenings. We are a very sociable club & new members are made to feel very welcome.
