This website describes a number of walks, mostly in the North East of England.
The walks are all illustrated with photographs, and a route description
is provided for each walk.
Most of the walks are circular, most are between 8 - 10 miles in length, and
ALL of them are moderate enough to be tackled by a group of retired men, - the
Grey Panthers, who meet every Wednesday round the year to enjoy the scenery
of this part of the country as well as each other's company.

The list of walks has been sorted by approximate
geographical areas, - such as the North Yorkshire
Moors, Swaledale, Weardale etc. By selecting a walk
title from a list, you will be taken to a page where you can obtain a route
description and photographs of the actual walk. The route descriptions are
simplified, and you will need to use your Ordnance Survey map to complete
the planning of your walk. You don't have to be super-heroes to tackle the walks, but they still require the walker to be reasonably fit and healthy to undertake them. You must ALWAYS respect the climate of this country, and the terrain involved. ALWAYS wear appropriate clothing and footwear, and ALWAYS ensure that you have a map and compass to hand and know how to use them. |

| The walks described have been undertaken in all seasons and
all weathers. Our walking group, the Grey
Panthers, walks round the year. We love the countryside, - hopefully
those who hike in our footsteps will also develop a love for the stupendous
countryside of the North East of England. We hope that YOU will try
some of the routes that we have walked, and enjoy them as much as WE have! Select the button below to be taken to the list of walks. |
