Club weekend – 16 & 17 jULY 2O22

It was a weekend of two halves! On Saturday we were four groups covering Gleouraich and Spidean Mialach, Sgurr a’ Mhaoraich, Stob Ban and one brave group headed for Sgurr na Ciche, Garbh Chioch Mhor and Sgurr nan Coireachan. Annoyingly the clag didn’t really clear for any of us on the Saturday and there are […]

Creag Mhor – Saturday 18 June

We set out at 8.30am for the long walk along Glen Lochay with cracking views to Ben Chullum and back along the glen. Weather was a bit of a mix, short showers, lovely sun, cloud wind – Saturday morning had it all. After double checking we were at the correct gate, we broke off from […]

River Avon Walk

Some members met on Sunday 20th February to walk the River Avon Heritage Trail from Avonbridge to the Avon Aqueduct and return the same way. The torrential rain and storms over the preceding few days meant the river was very high and very rapid, and in parts the footpath was flooded so we took some […]

Linlithgow Walk January 2022

The clubs first meet of 2022 took place on Sunday 23 January. Although all members have kept up with walking locally and around Scotland we hadn’t met up as a club since early 2020 and it was great to be out as a club. Our walk took us from Linlithgow to Bo’ness via Linlithgow Loch, […]

In particular some of our members have managed to complete the final leg of their journey to complete all the Munros. On 29th May […]

Remembrance Sunday in Easy Ayrshire

Sunday was a bright day but the car windows needed to be scraped before we set out on the drive to Glenbuck Loch and the start of the River Ayr Way. A pictorial map and symbolic sculpture made of cast sand from Ayr beach marked the beginning of our walk. The route took us downhill […]

A visit to the North West

Seven Club members enjoyed a return visit to the bunkhouse near Ullapool. A weekend of mixed weather awaited us: some sunshine, heavy showers and occasional low cloud, but certainly nothing to keep us indoors (apart from the dreaded midge!) Dave travelled to the area on Thursday so that he could climb An Teallach on Friday. […]

A Circular walk round Loch Leven An excellent start to 2017

Monday 2 January 2017 dawned clear and bright – a superb day for any activity in the outdoors. Driving towards the Forth Bridge my eye was caught by lovely pink clouds above the Pentland Hills presaging the sunrise – I didn’t feel I could justify stopping on the hard shoulder to take a photo! […]

A Misty Christmas Meet in the Monadhliath

Twelve members attended the weekend, though unfortunately Alan was unable to stay for […]
