Gay Walking Groups In The UK

3. Mountain Walks and Winter Mountain Walks

These are more strenuous, and will typically take a complete day. There will be several hundreds of meters of ascent and descent, and the terrain and conditions will normally be more challenging, and the weather can have a much greater impact on the event. The group size will be smaller to reflect the more challenging conditions. You will call for to have more equipment to grab part. If you already like hiking in mountainous terrain, these walks may be ideal for you. 

Mountain walks are often, but not always, found as part of OutdoorLads hostel weekends, simply because the more remote locations can take too much time to obtain to for them to be practical as day walks, especially on shorter winter days.

OutdoorLads runs Mountain Walking events all over the UK where there are mountains. Areas such as the Lake District, Snowdonia, and the Scottish Highlands.

Winter Mountain Walks are the most challenging, as you can expect there to be snow and ice and the conditions will be much tougher. As a res

The Gay Art Of Walking Fast

Out of the motion blur, something appears. Someone appears. The first thing I notice is the bag slung across his shoulder: a baby bag, slippery and silvery, glistening under a sudden sunburst. Then his oversized fleece and joggers: a brief too crisp, a short-lived too tailored. Less love he had rolled out of bed in sweats and more like he was cosplaying the notion of someone rolling out of bed in sweats. Then his terrifying gait: large, brazen strides led from the hip. He thunders down the sidewalk, matching my pace. I stare at him, awed. He does not observe me at all. We are walking—cantering—gay stereotypes.


For the better part of an hour, we march together. We are two horses escaping the glue factory. We are shivering rats let loose into the bounty and brutality of existence. Side by side, neck and neck, we face our opposition as one. A raucous throng streams from a bus, obstructing our passage. No matter: with practised grace, he parts the crowd like the Red Sea. I tailgate behind him and saunter through without lifting an elbow. Could it all be this easy?

Whether you call it walking, hiking, or rambling, the Gay Sunday Walking Group goes out and enjoys it &#; in London, Essex, Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire.

You don’t have to be an experienced rambler to take part; in fact many of our members have developed a taste for the open air as a result of coming on one of our walks for the first time.

We usually have at least two walks every month: one half-day walk (about 3 to 6 miles), usually in one of the greener parts of Greater London, and one full-day walk (about 7 to 12 miles), usually in the countryside but within about an hour&#;s train journey from main London.

We welcome people of any age, and walk at a comfortable pace. All our walks can be reached by common transport. We also try to include parking information for drivers where possible. On full-day walks we often stop at a pub or café for lunch but you can bring a packed lunch if you prefer.

Despite the group&#;s name, we hold walks on Saturdays as successfully as Sundays, and occasionally on a bank holiday Monday.
