Walking in Chester-le-Street 

Welcome To Chester-le-Street Ramblers. 

We are one of the 14 groups of the Northumbria Ramblers area and as of March 2024, we have over 130 members. Join us for the opportunity to make new friends and improve your health while enjoying walks of a varied nature.  

 

Our walks 

We meet up to thirty minutes before leaving our regular meeting place to welcome, greet and brief everyone regarding the walk details and to organise car sharing, which is part of our green credentials.  

We offer walks at a variety of ability levels in a friendly social atmosphere. Thursday walks are around 5 miles, generally with a tea shop at the end; while on Sundays we take on longer routes. 

Please check with the relevant walk leader as a shorter walk is usually available.

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.
