We feel fortunate to have such a wide variety of footpaths and walks on our doorstep, so easily accessible for our Wirral and North Wales based walkers. Throughout the year, our group enjoy every changing mood that each season brings to the countryside and as can be seen here, Bebington Rambling Club’s keen photographers of John, Bruce, Peter, and Gill help us to recall our walks in the great outdoors through their lenses.
Bebington Rambling Club
The photos above provide a flavour of a recent A+ Walkers' Mini Break in the Yorkshire Dales, thanks to organisers Jon and Gill. We had wonderful views from the top of Ingleborough, ate our sandwiches near a delightful waterfall near Clapham (no, not that one!) and were amazed at the many displays of orchids - including lesser spotted and early purple - thriving in the limestone hills. An intrepid group also climbed Pen-y-Ghent.
These two photos were taken on the Club's Spring holiday where we were based at HF Derwentwater. We enjoyed perfect walking weather and renewed our love of one of England's areas of natural beauty.
Thanks to our walkers Bruce, Peter, and Debbie, who each has contributed their photos from recent B walks.
Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road.
Healthy, free, the world before me,
The long brown path before me leading wherever I choose.
Henceforth I ask not good fortune, I myself am
good fortune,
Henceforth I whimper no more, postpone no more,
need nothing,
Done with indoor complaints, libraries, querulous criticisms,
Strong and content I travel the open road.
