Numbers are generally limited to 12. Walkers are asked to bring their own packed lunch and Learmont Mackenze provide refreshments at a local tea room at the end of the day.
Walks can be anything from 6 to 14 miles in length and are graded as follows:
· Easy: Little climbing; generally under 8 miles in length; good tracks.
· Moderate: Hill walking; 8-12 miles; includes ascents of up to 350 metres.
· Strenuous: Hill walking; 12 miles or over; ascents of over 350 metres; some difficult or technical aspects e.g. steep ascents/sharp descents.
