Penrith is centrally located to provide a wide range of walks in the Lakeland hills, the Howgills, the Eden Valley and the North Pennines, and we even venture into the Yorkshire Dales and Scotland at times.
We are a friendly and welcoming group. We provide walks for a wide range of abilities each week, from low level woodland and lakeside walks to strenuous mountain walking.
We offer a wide range of walks from very easy (3 miles on level paths) to very strenuous mountain walks (15+miles with 4,000ft+ of ascent) and in a wide range of countryside, including mountains, lakes, woods, rivers, fields and parkland.
We have three or four walks every Wednesday, offering different types of walk. There are walks on most Saturdays, which are usually moderate in length, ascent and difficulty.
Cumbria also offers Wellbeing walks separately to the Ramblers which can be found at Ramblers Wellbeing Walks - Active Cumbria
We welcome non-members of Ramblers to join us on our walks. Choose one or two walks that you would like to try. Follow the instructions given in the walk description but if you require further information, contact the walk leader. If you wish to continue with Ramblers, you will be very welcome.
Please arrive at the meeting point at least 5 mins and preferably 10 mins before the time specified. Contact the leader if you wish to go directly to the start of the walk or if you have never walked with us previously.
