Burnley & District

Walking

Status:Active, open to new members
Coordinator:
Group email: Walking group
When: On Friday mornings 10:30 am
First and third Friday

We meet on the first Friday of each month at 10.30am to walk about 4-7 miles, for 2-4 hours within 30 minutes’ drive of Burnley. We also now meet on the third Friday of the month for people who prefer easier, shorter and less strenuous walks. As we only really decide from month-to-month where we will go next, details are published in the monthly newsletter, the Events Page of this site and they are also shown below. This usually allows a full week’s notice to everyone of our plans.

See below for walks upcoming in the next few weeks.
