Weston Walkers
Weston Walkers is a local village group of amateur walkers from Weston and surrounding villages which meet once a month to enjoy a walk together, with no commitment to join every month. The walks take place on the second Monday of each month, usually an afternoon walk but sometimes in the morning followed by a pub lunch, either walking directly from the village or from a suitable point a short drive away.
If you wish to enjoy sociable company, conversation and exercise please contact Graham Barnett on 01869 350707 / gblmb@btinternet.com for further information.
There are a number of fantastic local walks to undertake around Weston on the Green and details for each walk have kindly been collated by Graham and can be found below. Apart from the Weston on the Green village walk, the walks range in length from 3.5 miles to 10 miles.
