A club spokesperson said: “We’ve had a great summer, with a few club walks and a holiday to the Dolomites – although our Scottish-based club meets have had less blue skies!

“We run a four-weekly bus and meet on Sundays. Guests are welcome to join twice before committing to membership, and we cater to all abilities - aiming to offer a high and low level walk each month.

“We are a sociable, friendly club who will warmly welcome new members.”

Upcoming walks

The club’s next walks include September 20 at Kinlochleven, October 18 at Ben Lawers, and November 15 at Arrochar.
