The Birmingham Ramblers operate a programme of Walks for the Public (Go directly to the programme) , to provide opportunities for people to start (or re-start) walking for health and pleasure. Walks of approximately 5 miles are organised once a month on Saturdays using trains or buses. You don't have to be a member of the Ramblers' Association to join these walks. Please wear sensible shoes and bring a raincoat or umbrella, just in case. Paths may be muddy. There may be stiles. Children welcome with an adult, provided the children can walk the distance. You cannot bring a dog. On all walks participants should bring food, something to drink and suitable footwear. Boot covers (e.g. plastic bags) are suitable for pub stops. Some walks have a pub/tearoom at the midpoint. If necessary, e.g. because of flooding, we may change the route, or take you on a different walk (where we don't have to wade through a river or a mud-bath).
Groupsave (i.e. 3 or 4 people travelling together) applies to trainfares, with discounts of 1/3 to 1/2 per ticket. For more info, ring (0121)682 9889 or (0121)680 7486, Enter: City of Birmingham Ramblers into your web browser or go to: http://www.BirminghamRamblers.org.uk.
