Our Events & Activities

Huddersfield Ramblers are a friendly group and usually have a drink together after every walk, as well as a range of social events throughout the year.

We also take part in footpath clearance work in the area.

Social Events

• We usually arrange several walking holidays every year, each with a planned set of walks led by our members. The holidays usually include:
  • A long weekend in February at a hotel within 2-3 hours' drive from Huddersfield. In recent years we have visited the Lake District, Wales, Northumberland and the Yorkshire Coast.
  • A week-long coach holiday in the autumn, generally somewhere further afield in the UK. 
  • An overseas mountains or seaside holiday in Europe in summer. This has included trips to resorts in the Alps and Dolomites as well as to the Canary Islands and various locations in the Mediterranean. 
  • A long weekend summer "self-book / self-drive" holiday where we plan the date, location and walks programme, and participants make their own arrangements for transport and accommodation. We pick small towns or large villages with a range of camping/caravanning, B&B, pubs and hotel options. Destinations are usually within three to four hours' drive of Huddersfield, and have included the Yorkshire Dales, the Scottish Borders, North Wales, Northumberland and Shropshire. 
• An annual Christmas Dinner and Dance in December
• Monthly "First Tuesday of the Month" drinks, at a pub in Huddersfield, throughout the "winter season" (September to April)
