Following today’s walk, please join us for an outdoor social to mark bonfire night (slightly early) at King George V playing field in Twyford.

As well as a bonfire, this outdoor event features fairground stalls, beer tent with ales from Bingham’s Brewery, a barbecue tent and a spectacular firework display set to music.

Gates to the playing field – which are a short walk from Twyford train station – open at 6.30 pm. Tickets are available to buy on the gate.

Prior the event the organiser intends to be in a local pub with others who have attended the day’s walk (likely after 5.00), before heading to the playing field.

The organiser can meet anyone not on the walk at 6.40pm, at the main crossroads in Twyford – there are benches opposite Costa Coffee, next to the Twyford village sign.

For anyone coming later please text Clare when inside the venue. If people are earlier then they can text me and she’ll tell them what pub the group are in.

Booking onto a walk

Most walks do not require advance booking, and you can just turn up on the day. We encourage those comfortable with Meetup to indicate there that you plan to come though, so that others can see there will be plenty of people there – this really helps to encourage new members to come along.
For the few which still have limited numbers, this is handled via Meetup. Follow the link to a walk’s Meetup page (or press 🎟 Register / 🎟 Tickets / 🎟), and mark yourself as attending.
Social and other events may have their own booking system – please see the event description.

Pace Guide

Gentle: led at a gentle pace with regular short breaks for water or rest. Should be suitable for anyone capable of the distance. (Expect 2–2.5 mph.)
Medium: led at an intermediate pace with fewer breaks but still suitable for most walkers. (Expect 2.5–3 mph.)
Fast: led at a quick pace with minimal breaks. May be a challenge for those with less fitness. (Expect 3 mph+.)

Speeds quoted are only a rough guide, including time spent on short water/rest stops and negotiating stiles/gates/roads etc. but not that spent on longer lunch or pub stops.
