We are a large and active group, laying on at least one walk every Sunday and two different short local walks every Tuesday. On alternate Sundays, travel is by hired bus. The fare is Â�£10 for a single trip. We warmly welcome anyone who wishes to join our walks. There is no need to book your place on the bus, just turn up and pay your fare. Children accompanied by a responsible adult go free. The bus leaves from next to the car park at Fleming House, Tryst Road, Cumbernauld TC at 9.00am, calling first at Craiglinn Roundabout at 8.50am, then Condorrat Cross and Greenfaulds bus stop on Central Way, before going to Fleming House. On Sundays when there is no bus, transport is by shared car, from the same place and at the same time. Drivers welcome contributions to fuel costs.
The Tuesday walks are short ( 2 to 3 hours), gentle-paced, and are accessed by public transport. Each walk has a different start point - check the club website for Tuesday programme details.
On alternate Wednesdays we have full day walks, usually accessed by car. These leave from the ASDA Cumbernauld car park at 9.30am, and fuel costs are shared.
We also have monthly social events in the winter months, and thrice yearly we organise walkiing weekends away in various parts of Britain. Our first walking weekend of 2009 was held in Newton Stewart. In July (Glasgow Fair weekend), we head to Kyle of Lochalsh, and in September the venue will be Settle, to explore the N. Yorks Moors.
