Wycombe District Ramblers Group<br />
Our Ramblers groups help local people enjoy<br />
walking and protect the places we all love to walk.<br />
Most groups organise regular walks led by local<br />
experts – a great way to get outside, make new<br />
friends and discover how walking boosts your<br />
health and happiness.<br />
You’re welcome to join us on any of our walks to see<br />
if the Ramblers is for you. Then, once you’ve enjoyed<br />
the views, fun, exhilaration and good company, it’s<br />
just a case of becoming a member. Do make sure<br />
you're fit enough and have the right footwear and<br />
clothing for the walk you want to do, though. You<br />
can contact the group or leader if doubt. www.<br />
