Ramblers

The Ramblers are Britain’s walking charity and their website has details of walking opportunities up and down the land. The Ramblers has over 450 local walking groups, many of which have individual websites that may have information too. The award-winning Walk Magazine website has details of walking routes across the country, ranging from short city walks to longer day trips out in the country.

Local Councils

Local council websites are a great source of information on walking. Each site is laid out differently but you can usually find the information under ‘Leisure’ or ‘Environment’. Use the Direct Gov website to find out which authority looks after your local area.
