The walk is accessible by public transport


Starting out
For all walks you need walking boots (for some easier routes other footware may be acceptable), waterproofs, and a drink (at least 1 litre of water, consider 2 or more for longer walks or hotter days). For most walks you will also need to bring a packed-lunch and snacks for along the way - most full-day walks last at least 4-5 hours.

If you are new to walking read the Ramblers guide to getting started for more information before heading out into the hills.

Walking with the RA
