Summer walk Timetable
The Goring Gap Health Walks Timetable alters twice a year. This is to reflect the seasonal changes which add and remove the evening walks that are included from April to the end of August. Demand for a particular walk on a particular day may lead us to review the arrangements mid season, though this is unlikely.
Please check the Leaders Roster for up to date information as some Monday evening walks may not go ahead due to lack of leaders.
All advertised walks take place every week throughout the year, as shown below, including Easter and bank holidays. The ONLY exception being when a normal walk day falls on Christmas Day, Boxing Day or New Year's Day.
A walk may be cancelled due to exceptionally bad weather, such as a Thunder Storm. If this occurs, the leader will still attend the start point to inform walkers. This occurrence is very rare.
