Welcome to the Leicestershire and Rutland Ramblers

The Ramblers is a charity whose core work is to safeguard the places people want to go walking and encourage them to do so — from gentle strolls to challenging hikes, whether in towns or countryside. We organise about 1000 local walks each year and there are walks for all ages and levels of fitness. There is a mix of weekend walks, midweek evening walks, and some daytime walks.

When you join, you can elect to join any group (or none) but can walk with all groups, nearby or further afield. If you prefer to walk on your own or with friends or family, you can take advantage of our route finder to plan your walk. All members receive the Walk Magazine twice a year, and the Area produces a regular newsletter 'Write of Way'.
