OUR PICK OF THE WEB

We have done the hard work for you and searched the web to find the best web sites for walkers and ramblers. Whether you want the latest weather or an ordnance map for your next walk, it's all available right here…

The Ramblers Association

For all things rambling… the web site provides a Bed & Breakfast finder with over 3,000 B&B's listed in the UK. It has the latest news and press releases concerning walking and the countryside. It has lots of advice on Outdoor Kit, Public Transport, Events, Holidays and much much more.

Bradford C.H.A

The official web site for the Bradford C.H.A Rambling & Social Club. The club was founded in 1903 and is the only West Yorkshire Rambling or Hiking Club which has a weekly coach.

Walking and Hiking UK

WalkingAndHiking was formed to offer a unique reference point on trekking and rambling in safety.

Walking isn't just good exercise, it's also a great way to enjoy yourself, getting out into the country and hiking. You might want the steep, barren hills of the Peak District, the taxing length of the Pennine Way or the more rolling, and less strenuous, scenery of the South Downs, but wherever you go in Britain, there's plenty of glorious hiking. However, there was no website to satisfy both beginners and experienced hikers - and that's why we created WalkingAndHiking.
