Manchester Weekend Walkers Group

Manchester Weekend Walkers organise and lead walks for people who are working or busy in the week and who want to make the most of their free days.

• We walk in and around Greater Manchester.
• All our walks use public transport - so you don't need to drive to get to the countryside.
• No need to book for most walks, you can just turn up unless there are special arrangements in the description.
• There's a walk every weekend, all year round.
• You can join us on regular weekday evening social events - details of these are shown on our website here: Socials 
• Several times a year we organise weekend trips away to walk somewhere in England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland - future events will be added to our website here: Weekends

Since we were founded in 2013, people in our Group have enjoyed getting out to many great places in Greater Manchester and beyond, followed by a chat and maybe a drink afterwards before catching the train home. 

We hope that you find something of interest in our programme, maybe something with a bit of history or fantastic views, a shorter afternoon walk, or something longer over a full day in the hills.

We have some advice on getting to a walk, choosing the right distance and difficulty level, what to wear and what to bring on the Come on a Walk page on our website.

Although our walks are aimed at the interests and abilities of people aged "40-plus" everyone is welcome, but please check with us before bringing children and please do not bring your dog (apart from assistance dogs).
