Bedford Rambling Club
Programme of walks & events
Please revisit this page regularly to check for updates or revisions.
Walking for the pleasure and enjoyment of the countryside, the club offers a variety of walking groups to cater for most abilities.
Our walks are normally circular and start at 10.00 a.m.
Monday walks are usually about 2 hours and around 4 – 5 miles. Sunday walks are longer at 5-6 miles. For those walkers who prefer a less challenging option the Leisurely Strollers programme is designed to be shorter and also takes place on a Monday at 10.a.m.
Well behaved dogs, on a short lead are welcome on all groups, unless stated otherwise in the walk description.

Sunday 10th May – Meet at 10am next to the footbridge over Riseley Brook, more or less opposite no. 68, High Street, for this 7.2 mile circuit to the edge of Pertenhall and back. The way includes fields, field edges, tracks and some wide views from a long ridge. There are also undulations amounting to a total rise of about 340ft and, luckily, a descent of the same. We’ll have a short drinks stop and a longer one for snacks. The Fox and Hounds will welcome anyone in need of refreshment after the walk but we can’t use the car park as it will be needed by Sunday lunch customers.
