A record of walks carried out by the various groups within the club, with the most recent being at the top. Click on the date to go to the details for the walk and, for some walks, a selection of photographs.

When the walks contain summits from Wainwright's 214 fell tops, or from the summits listed in his guide 'The Outlying Fells of Lakeland', there are links to pages with more details about these summits. They are highlighted in the 'Walk' column below, and on the individual walks pages. There are also links to 'Other Summits' and 'Highlights of Walks'.
