Frequently asked questions

How do I join a walk?

Have a look at our upcoming walks, choose a walk you'd like to attend and just turn up. We recommend that you allow yourself at least an extra 10 minutes to park up, get your boots on and get to the starting point. If you have any questions about a walk then please get in touch with the walk leader

Do I need to be a member?

You're welcome to come on up to three walks to try us out, but after that you will need to sign up as a member of the Ramblers

When you are signing up to the Ramblers, remember to select the 'East Yorkshire & Derwent' for your area and 'East Yorks Get Your Boots On' for your group

Do I need to book on to the walks?

There's no need to book – you can just turn up! Although if you use Facebook, it is helpful if you mark yourself as "Going" to the event once you know you're definitely going, as then we can get a rough idea of numbers.

Who is the group for?

GYBO is a group that is aimed for individuals in their 20s and 30s so we can walk with like minded individuals in this age bracket. We have a sister group called Midlife Hikers who are aimed for people in their 40s and 50s. Please do get in contact with them if you think this group would be better suited for you.

We have a range of walks from easy to hard, so no matter what your level of fitness and experience, you can find a walk that suits you.

For people who are older, then please see other Ramblers Groups in the East Yorkshire & Derwent Area.

What do I need to bring on a walk?

Please wear suitable clothing and footwear, also bring a packed lunch and enough water. Please see our recommended kit list.

If you have medication such as EpiPen/inhalers or medical conditions that may affect you during the walks, please let the walk leader know.

Are dogs allowed on the walks?

Dogs may be allowed on our walks but please check each walk description as to whether it is suitable. You must check the distance of the walk and the weather conditions on the day to ensure that it is suitable for your dog and their individual capabilities, as there may be obstacles such as stiles and livestock. Owners are responsible for this and for their own dog whilst on a walk with us.

Please be aware that dogs are not allowed on our weekends away.
