The association organises about 50 walks every year, and has several expert walk leaders to help you enjoy the best routes we have found while trekking ourselves.

Walks are organised for the benefit of RAM members. Guests are welcome to try any walk and are invited to join the association if they find the going good and wish to come again.

How difficult are the walks?

Ramblers often leave the paved roads to roam the countryside and this may not be suitable for everybody. Therefore all walks are graded by duration and by difficulty, to help members decide whether a walks is suitable for them or not.

Easy	For the occasional rambler who prefers to walk along easy terrain routes along country lanes without much rough ground or too steep inclines.
Moderate	For the average rambler who can take 3-4 hour stretches of walking on uneven surfaces.
Hard	For the fit rambler in good physical shape and able to negotiate steep inclines and long stretches.
Very Hard	Only for hardy ramblers loving difficult challenges, and who are ready to take a beating.
