Most of our walks go into the hills. Participants are reminded that the following gear must be taken:

walking boots, rucksack, hat, gloves, warm clothing (not jeans!), spare sweater, water and a hot drink, lunch, extra food and of course, waterproof jacket and trousers. A whistle and torch should be carried, particularly during the winter months. Participants must satisfy themselves that the walk is suitable for their abilities. You can take advice, by ringing the walks leader whose telephone number is given. No liability will be accepted for loss or injury that occurs as a result of taking part. 

An adult must accompany young people (under18).

Dogs (well controlled) are permitted. It should be noted that under the CROW Act, when taking dogs onto Open Access land they must be on a fixed lead, no more than two metres long, whenever livestock are near, and at ALL TIMES from 1st March to 31st July.

Non members of the Park Society will be asked to make a donation of £5.00 per walk. Half price for the under 16's, the unemployed and students. The fee is deductible from membership fee on joining the Society within two months of the walk
