About Us
Welcome
Welcome to ERYRI Ramblers / Croeso i Cerddwyr ERYRI
Our group activities: * Walking and Scrambling * Social Events * Footpath Maintenance *
We are a welcoming, friendly group. If you a newcomer to walking or a regular walker interested in trying something new, contact us or simply join us for one of our walks. Come and try us out for two or three walks and see how things go.
We have great walks, ranging from short, easy strolls, amazing cliff walks along the stunning Llyn coastline to superb ridge walks and scrambles in Snowdonia.
Also we have a popular range of social events: a long weekend, annual dinner plus a quiz night (see below).
Joining the Ramblers, Britain’s major organisation for walkers, will seem the natural, healthy thing to do!
Putting something back, we have a team of enthusiastic volunteers Tim Taclo working in liaison with Gwynedd Council to improve footpaths.
Their efforts are appreciated by local communities and fellow walkers.
For current information, see our active Facebook group (which is open to all), also a lively, informative Twitter account
We have strong links and share walks with all Ramblers Groups in North Wales, particularly:
Ynys Mon, Conwy Valley, Vale of Clwyd, Clwydian, Meirionnydd and Llyn Ramblers. See the Ramblers website for all North Wales Walks.
Walks and Scrambles
IMPORTANT - All Group Walks Cancelled
Sadly but not unexpectedly, The Ramblers have today 17 March 2020 announced that no further Group Walks will take place until further notice. The full announcement is attached, we will keep you updated. Take care and stay healthy.

Re-starting Group Walks 14 July 2020
When the Government and The Ramblers announce guidelines for us to safely ramble again and following decisions made by the Area committee, the Walk Programme booklet has not been published.
Our plan for Eryri is to leave it up walk leaders to publish walks on Eryri Facebook 3 of 4 days beforehand to maximise the chance of good weather.
We will need to limit numbers: please text or Facebook message (do not phone) the walk leader for permission to come, anyone turning up without booking maybe disappointed.
Hopefully we should end the year with some great walks on fine days.
Notes:
1. Insurance - when published on Eryri Ramblers Facebook, our website or Twitter @EryriRamblers, the walk is covered by Ramblers Insurance.
2. As the number of Saturdays will be reduced, we would permit one "C" or "D" walk plus one "A" or "B" walk.
3. As advised in the July Newsletter, members who are off-line should team up with an on-line "buddy".
Keep safe, follow the guidelines and simply enjoy getting out again.
