Walking in Hertfordshire and beyond

We’re one of the 500 Ramblers groups who help our local community to discover and enjoy walking in the local area and beyond. We’re committed to protecting the places we all love to walk to make sure they remain open to everyone.

Herts Weekend Walkers (HWW for short) is aimed at people aged in their 40s & 50s who are normally working during the week and can usually only find time to get outside and enjoy a walk at the weekend. The group enjoys varied walks in and around the county of Hertfordshire and sometimes outside the county boundaries.

The group also enjoys some socialising after walks and occasionally organises trips and holidays to other parts of the country.

Walk with us

All our walks are led by volunteer members of HWW who walk regularly with the group and give up their own time to plan and lead them. The walks are listed on the Ramblers website and additional details are sent out to our members by regular email bulletins. We operate as a paperless group. Our walks are usually between 5 and 12 miles long and occasionally we undertake more challenging walks

We are always pleased to see new walkers so do come along and try us out. We will be happy to see you. Just introduce yourself to the walk leader on the day. You may come on two or three walks after which you must join Ramblers.

You should choose "Herts Weekend Walkers" in Hertfordshire & North Middlesex Area as your group of choice otherwise you will be automatically allocated to another group based on your home postcode. Membership of HWW entitles you to walk with any Ramblers group in the country.

If you’ve got any questions about our group’s walks please do get in touch with us or check our FAQ.
