1. Reminder: there’ll be no en-route boot stop during the outward coach journey!
2. The coach will drop off as required between Reeth and Muker.
3. Remember that we are still in the grip of winter! When selecting a walk please allow for the slowing effect of snow-covered ground. Be sure to take plenty of warm clothing, including headwear & gloves, plus a reliable torch!

Aycliffe Fell Walking Club Celebrates its 250th Walk

Posted on | By Barry | No comments

The club was founded in 1977 and members celebrated its 250th outing on Saturday (15 November 2008) with a variety of walks around Muker and Hawes in the Yorkshire Dales. Some people chose to do short walks in the valley and others took to the hills and walked from Muker to Hawes. The weather was fine and the day was rounded off with soup and sandwiches followed by a quiz at the Fountain Hotel in Hawes before catching the coach back home. A good time was had by all.
