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 3000 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.

'Where to Go guide' which is designed to give you an insider view of walks in
the UK from people who really know the area. Share your knowledge with other
ramblers by submitting your walks as well as reading other peoples.
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.
The Dalesbus
For comprehensive public transport information for the Yorkshire Dales and
surrounding area.
The Met Office
Read up to the minute local, national and international weather forecasts. Check
out rainfall radar animation to see whether there's any rain heading your way.
View satellite imagery, watch live web cams around Britain and check rainfall
and UV levels for your region.
