Weekend Walking Holidays

Join us to explore the British Isles on a weekend away.

Our weekend walking holidays are very popular and book up quickly. You must be a member of the Ramblers to book onto a weekend holiday.

The best way to pay is by bank transfer. Ask the weekend organiser if you are interested for full details.

The Nottingham & Derby Walking Group is a not for profit organisation and it is run by volunteers. The weekend holidays are extremely good value and we do not make a profit on them.

  • Fri 3 May 2024 - Mon 6 May 2024: May Day Bank Holiday Weekend

    Grinton, Yorkshire

    • Places: 16
    • Led by: Rachael Drewery

    The weekend will be based in the Swaledale area of Yorkshire with planned walks on the 4th, 5th and 6th. We will also be booking a meal for the Saturday evening in either Grinton or Reeth. In a change for those who have been on an NDWG weekend before, individuals will be responsible for booking their own accommodation. An obvious choice with twin rooms, shared rooms, dorms, pods and camping is the YHA at Grinton Lodge. There are, however, a number of b&b’s in the area and hotels in Richmond (about 30 min. drive away). For enjoyment and safety, numbers will be limited to 16 group members. As usual we will need details for those attending (including Ramblers no.) and where you are staying. I will set up an email list and, as we will not all be staying in the same place, a WhatsApp group to assist daily communication. If you are interested in attending, please direct message or email Rachael at weekends@ndwg.org.uk

  • Fri 30 Aug 2024 - Tue 3 Sep 2024: Keswick, Lake District

    YHA Keswick

    • Places: 16
    • Led by: Jay Power

    The weekend will be based in Keswick with planned walks on the 31st Aug, 1st Sep and 2nd Sep. We have booked 2 four bed rooms in Keswick YHA where we will be based for the weekend. The cost per person for the 3 nights is £112.50. There are plenty of other options available in the hostel if you would prefer more privacy etc. There are also loads of B&B options and camping close by in Keswick. The hostel itself offers self catering as well as a pretty decent restaurant menu. Details can be found on the YHA website. There is free parking available a few hundred metres away.

    For enjoyment and safety, numbers will be limited to 16 group members. As usual we will need details for those attending (including Ramblers no.) and where you are staying. Jay will set up an email list and, if we are not all staying in the same place, a WhatsApp group to assist daily communication. If you are interested in attending please email Jay at weekends@ndwg.org.uk.

    If you wish to book one of the pre-booked bed spaces, we will take email requests received AFTER 6pm on Wed 1st May on a first come first serve basis. We will also post a reminder a day or so before.
