Booking Made Easy
We have historically made bookings and changes to those bookings and these details are kept by us on a manually maintained list. We will be removing all RSVP’s from Meetup so as to avoid confusion.
Sell Your Stuff!
EVERY ad will receive promotion via a blog post similar to this, will be available to view through the android app and will be promoted to both the meetup membership and the Facebook page, reaching up to 20,000 people who have expressed a keen interest in walking!
Working With Covid
We will meet at suitable locations and the leader will describe the walk, the conditions underfoot and the estimated time it will take. We will do this whilst observing the prevailing social distancing guidance. You will be reminded there is to be no sharing of kit, clothing, food or drinks.
A Roman Road, Secret Valley And Fine Hill

The Taff Trail, Aberfan and Hidden History!
This is a full day long walk in the Valleys with easy access from Quakers Yard railway station. It is 10 miles and there is one steep ascent. Parking is available on the road by the station.
FOUR Waterfalls – Walk 2
This waterfalls walk is a 4 mile day over often rough and broken ground but doable by most levels of ability as we take it easy for the duration. There are two steep hills and some muddy and rocky footpaths and we gain 400 metres over the course of the day. We visit four waterfalls of note and several smaller falls too. One waterfall is available to walk behind!
