WEEKENDS
The Group organises weekends away
staying in Youth Hostels, Bunkhouses and campsites. At Youth Hostels evening
meals and breakfasts are provided at reasonable prices, but self catering
facilities are also available. It is advisable to bring food and drink for
making packed lunches. Transport for the weekend is pooled in order to share
costs. Proper walking equipment is essential so bring boots, rucksack,
waterproofs, and warm clothing. All weekends generally include an overnight
stay on Friday and Saturday nights. The grade of walks on the weekends can vary
from Sunday walks therefore please contact the appropriate organiser for further
details.
