Rambling around Bristol

So what do we know about the Ramblers?

In this episode Vice President Kate Ashbrook gives us the history.

We hear from local Bristol Ramblers Sam Perry and Ian Bickerton who tell us why they love walking with the Bristol Ramblers.

Our expert Nigel Andrews informs us about the right gear to use - especially footwear, waterproofs and poles.

Double act Keith Budd and Carew Reynell whet our appetite about what the Ramblers have in store during Walk Fest.

Plus we find out exactly what their favourite snacks are...!

Bristol Walk Fest runs from 1st - 31st May 2022.

Bristol Walk Fest is coordinated by Active Ageing Bristol, hosted by Age UK Bristol with funding from Bristol City Council and Bristol Ramblers.
