Have a Great 2019

Welcome

Marple District Ramblers (Marple Ramblers) was formed in 1967 by a small group of keen walkers in the Marple area. One of their earliest objectives was to protect local footpaths and keep them open for posterity.  Originally walks were only on Sundays, but over the years as membership grew, Thursday walks were introduced.

We now have a thriving club with over 350 members.  From the small beginnings we now have up to 5 graded walks each Thursday and 4 different groups each Sunday.

We are a very friendly club and welcome new members of all ages.

We are most fortunate to have willing leaders for every walk in our published programme, with a Committee who plan social events, organise holidays and publish a newsletter, "Footprint", 3 times a year.

This website is a new venture for us.  We hope current members and visitors find it helpful.  We welcome comments about the site and encourage suggestions to how we can develop it further.  Click the box below to get a comments form.

New Year Resolution

Come and join us in the New Year.  

You can choose from 5 levels of walks on Thursdays and 4 levels on Sundays. There is no commitment to to walk every week, just when you can.

With social activities each month and 3 holidays arranged for 2019 (2 in the UK and one in Bulgaria), there's something for everyone.
