What we’re about
Get ready for new adventures! Free hikes, fitness, and social activities organised by like-minded people. Visit the countryside, beautiful landscapes, and locations in and around the UK (and at times even outside the UK). Enjoy new adventures on your weekdays or weekends being part of a fun group.
Also, various other activities would be organised such as running and other outdoor and social activities for fitness and fun. At times local and international travel and trips will be organised and if you decide to join then communicate with the organiser directly for the same.
All are welcome to join. Be polite, respectful, and courteous at all times to fellow members and the organiser. Please bear in mind that the participants are responsible for their safety and not the organiser. No service / risk is inferred or accepted. The group is concerned with offering some route guidance and organising events only. Participants take responsibility for their safety and any risk undertaken. The organiser will not be responsible for any accident or injury during an event and/or any costs incurred by participants for transport, insurance, and/or accommodation and in committing/signing up for the hikes/events you agree to undertake sole ownership of all risks concerned.
Where? In and around London and within the UK and at times outside the UK.
The events won’t get cancelled due to bad weather. However, please bear in mind the risk is yours in attending the events.
Please make sure to read the rules when participating in activities. The walk/hike/events are usually led by the organiser. Please do not bring any pets or underage children on a hike without express permission of the event host.
Those who turn up to the events without signing up may be removed or banned from the group.
The group is led by easygoing and supportive person however, certain discipline needs to be maintained to ensure the activity is given its seriousness. Therefore, please support and cooperate with the organiser. Those who are constantly changing status from Going to Not Going around the last minute or not turning up for the hike will be moved to Not Going or waitlist by the organiser if there is a waiting list and at times may be removed from the group if it is a consistent practice by the individuals concerned. Those who are showing +1 and change to not going just a day before when there is a waiting list may be removed from the group. This is a voluntary not-for-profit group run by volunteers however, a subscription is paid by the organiser in order to maintain the group on this platform. Disrespectful, argumentative, or challenging behaviour towards the organiser may lead to removal from the group or its events. Non-cooperation during the hikes or events will be seen as disrespecting the time and effort of the organiser. Some of the regular attendees may be invited or preferred to some special or weekend away events announced by the organiser which may be for limited numbers only however, these may not always be posted on meetup but on a separate WhatsApp group for regulars.
The events are posted mostly in advance so that you can plan your time. Regular attendees may be given preference if there is a waiting list and this is because of certainty of attendance. It is a community focussed activity to fitness and well being. If you have event ideas and suggestions then please feel free to suggest the same to the organiser.
The hikes and events are completely free to attend and is organised without any expectation.
