Walking in Avon

Join us for great walks in Avon area. There is a mix of large cities, small towns and villages encompassing woodland, farmland, meadows, rivers, and canals.  The area includes part of the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the Mendips and a number of long distance paths come through the area - including the Cotswold Way, Limestone Link and Monarch's Way. Our group walks are a superb way to get to know the area better and to make new friends. Distances vary and we grade our walks so you know what to expect and what stops we will have. 

Have a look at the group websites below to see which of our walks sound right for you and then come along for a walk and a chat with us. We look forward to seeing you soon! 

Join our walking community

Members really are spoilt for choice in Avon area. Each of the groups lay on a varied programme of walks so there really is something for everyone. There are countryside walks ranging from level to very hilly. There are walks with historical interest and through picturesque villages. 

There are many opportunities to volunteer with us - we are always delighted to welcome new walk leaders as well as members who want to join one of our Path Maintenance teams or perhaps to help protect our paths as a Footpath Secretary or by supporting the Don’t Lose Your Way campaign. Non-members are welcome to join us for three walks before we ask them to join the Ramblers.

Campaign with us - protect the places we walk

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.
