ramblers sheffield group

Walking in Sheffield and beyond

The Sheffield 40s Walking Group formed in 2007 and now has nearly 300 members. We walk mainly in the Peak District and South Yorkshire, usually ending up in a pub. The group is aimed at people in and around their forties/fifties/sixties but anyone over 18 and up for a laugh is very welcome. Our members come from a broad catchment area - from Chesterfield to Nottingham to Doncaster, not just Sheffield.

We offer a programme of Saturday and Sunday walks all year round, featuring longer and shorter walks. There are also evening walks during the lighter months. We have regular Socials and weekends away. See the Walks (https://www.s40wg.org/walks.php5?command=summary) and Socials (https://www.s40wg.org/socials.php5) pages of this site for more details. If the walk description has this symbol then it’s suitable for dogs too. Most of them are.

You are more than welcome to join us for a couple of walks to try us out before committing. Just choose a walk, text the walk leader that you will be coming along and let them know you are new. Click here (https://www.s40wg.org/join_page.php5) for further details about joining us..

The website is the best place to find everything you need to know about our group. But if you can’t find the answer to your question please feel free to email us at: sheffield40swg@gmail.com or see our Facebook group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/s40wg)
