Exploring Nature's Beauty

Join us on a journey through the picturesque landscapes of Leighton Buzzard and its surrounding areas. Our 90-minute walks, scheduled for the first and third Sunday of every month, promise not just exercise but an immersive nature experience. Discover the serene trails of Ivinghoe Beacon, the lush pathways of Rushmere Country Park, the panoramic vistas of Dunstable Downs, the tranquil shores of Tiddenfoot Lake, and the historic stretches of the Grand Union Canal.

Extended Adventures:

For those seeking a longer escape into the wilderness, we organise expeditions to some of the UK’s most breath-taking locations, including the rugged terrains of the Peak District and the majestic slopes of Snowdonia.

Details of these and all our splendid outings are available on our events page.

We have a once a month members get together for a curry (or other cuisines), as an opportunity for friendship, conversation and of course, good food!

We also plan the occasional outings, with fun activities such as go-karting, paddle boarding, and other adventurous experiences.
