Many of our weekend Club meets are multi activity events, including both walking and climbing, and the format is usually very flexible; sometimes involving organised groups, but also small informal teams setting out on their own adventures. We also run organised day walks on an ad-hoc basis throughout the year, plus an evening walk series throughout the summer. Below you will find details of our Club day and evening walking meet plans. To see our weekend meet plans, see the Events Calendar.
This page also contains a selection of walks recommended by our members. A wider selection of recommended walks is available to FMC members by logging in to the member’s area of the website. You will also need to log in to get meet-leader contact details.
Please note that everyone participating in FMC Club activities, or using the information provided on this site, do so at their own risk. Walking groups must take full responsibility for their route plan and navigation, ensure they are fit enough, sufficiently well-equipped and have made adequate provision for emergencies. Please see the BMC Website for guidance: – www.thebmc.co.uk. As a BMC affiliated club, the FMC fully subscribe to the BMC ‘Participation Statement’:
“The BMC recognises that climbing and mountaineering are activities with a danger of personal injury or death. Participants in these activities should be aware of and accept these risks and be responsible for their own actions and involvement”.
Walking Meets Programme (Day Walks & Evening Walks)
We also organise a program of evening walks in the summer months going to places in Lancashire and south Cumbria. Throughout the year we organise day walks these are publicised either in What’s On or by e-mail.
