Welcome to Durham City Ramblers. We organise walks of 8-10 miles every Wednesday and alternate Sundays, and shorter walks of 4-6 miles on Friday mornings. In summer we walk on alternate Monday evenings. Most of our walks end with a visit to a local pub or cafe for well-earned refreshment.
Our walks are usually within an hour’s drive of Durham City, and we encourage car sharing where possible. Walks cover a range of locations, from the hills of Teesdale and Weardale to the coasts of Durham and Northumberland.
Our knowledgeable walk leaders often include some local history or landmarks on their routes. Most of our walks are classed as moderate in terms of difficulty and terrain. We also organise occasional two day walking events further afield, with an overnight stay and a meal at a local pub or restaurant, and hold non-walking social events throughout the year.
Join us and enjoy the exercise, fresh air and companionship of group walks, as well as discovering more about our local area. Several of our members are very knowledgeable about British flora and fauna and happily share this with other walkers. After the walk there is usually an opportunity to have a well-deserved pint or cuppa and chat!

Walking is a simple pleasure that should be open to everyone, so we campaign to remove barriers to walking and we protect the places we love to wander.
