Welcome to the Forfar and District group. We are ideally situated for access to the beautiful Angus countryside and coast, as well as forays into surrounding areas such as Perthshire and Fife.
We are a small friendly group who enjoy getting together for fresh air, exercise and socialising. Our walks are usually between 4 - 8 miles in length, on varying terrains. We walk every fortnight on alternate Saturdays and Sundays and have introduced midweek strolls. When possible, we finish with a visit to a cafe.
---FORFAR and DISTRICT RAMBLERS IS 25 YEARS OLD! --- To celebrate this milestone we are having an Anniversary/Christmas Lunch at the Royal Hotel, Forfar on Saturday, 7th December at 12 noon.
