Ash Magna Walk led by Andy Fitton

A walk for those not on the Cumbria walking weekend. This relatively easy 5 and a half mile walk will take us on roads and footpaths around this lovely area. There will be a few stiles and we are likely to meet cattle therefore dogs are not recommended. Drinks will be available at the end of the walk at our local pub if you so wish. Please bring suitable clothing, footwear and some refreshments.

Meet at Sherry Mill Hill car park at 1.30pm to car share and travel to Ash to meet the leader

Ceiriog Valley area led by Nigel Hart

This 8 mile walk will start from Chirk and there will be a few ascents. Weather permitting we will enjoy some lovely views. Please bring suitable clothing, footwear and a packed lunch.

Meet at Sherry Mill Hill car park at 10am to car share

Midweek walk led by Peter Stockbridge

Whitchurch Walkers were formed in 1976 by a group of local people interested in walking and the protection of local footpaths. The group has over 100 members and holds one half day Saturday afternoon ramble and one all day Sunday ramble per month throughout the year plus a number of mid week-walks. The Saturday and mid-week walks are normally between 4 and 6 miles and the Sunday walks between 8 to 11 miles.

The Whitchurch Walkers are organised by a committee (listed below) that meets in the Black Bear, High Street, Whitchurch on the last Tuesday of each month except for December and March, which is reserved for the Annual General Meeting. Every 6 months a new programme is produced and published giving details of the walks planned for the next 6 months.

Our current subscriptions, renewable in March of each year, are:

            Adults                                                                   £5.00

New subscriptions taken out between October and February will run for 13 -18 months.
