Two changes to our walks programme:
Unfortunately, the leader for the walk on Saturday 29 August has injured her foot – we hope it gets better soon, but this walk is cancelled and Pat will lead an alternative walk from Navigation Road to Altrincham details are shown separately in the Next Walks section.
For Phil’s walk on 7 September, due to footpath closures, the finish will now be in Didsbury, again more details are in Next Walks.
We are the Manchester and Salford Ramblers and we specialise in shorter walks around the parks and green ways of our two cities. That doesn't mean that we are just walking round streets and pavements. There are loads of open and green spaces along rivers, canals, on reclaimed land and in the parks of Manchester and Salford. We want people to know that there are fantastic walks on their doorstep - you don't have to travel miles to get access to beautiful places and we have knowledgeable leaders who can tell you all about them.
We do have days out in the glorious countryside around us, from the Cheshire plains to the hills of the Peak District and we organise walking weekends away.
