About us
Welcome to the Dorset 4050 Walkers group. Despite our group name, we really don’t mind what age you are! If you like walking with a welcoming, relaxed, easy going group of people who occasionally socialise, why not give us a try - we encourage people to join us on a walk to see if the group is for them before making any commitment to us or the Ramblers.
Our walks
Our aim is to provide a wide range of walks, at various grades and ranging between 8 and 15 miles in length. Typically, we'll walk at a moderate, sometimes brisk pace. We walk just about every weekend, usually on a Sunday and usually (but not always!) somewhere in Dorset. We also arrange a number of walking weekends throughout the year away from Dorset.
Events
Porlock Walking Experience 2025: our four walks for this year's Porlock trip have now been added to our walks programme - take a look. There are a few spaces left on each walk still, but best be quick! Any queries, please contact Andy on 07786 377101.
If you're thinking of joining us, don't forget to book your accommodation early - it’s a popular place to be in June. New for 2025, we’re organising a group meal out at the Top Shop pub in Porlock on the Saturday evening for those feeling social after all that walking. Information will be sent to those booked onto one or more walks, nearer the time. And for those who want to try something different, take a look at Exmoor Adventures for e-biking, kayaking, tree climbing and more. Please contact them direct if you're interested.
