THE EVERGREENS

Walking since 1974 – and still going!

THE EVERGREENS ARE CELEBRATING THEIR GOLDEN JUBILEE IN 2024

"It's the friendships formed as much as the quality of the walks

which has kept the Evergreens going for fifty years"

 

  • A choice every Tuesday between two walks of different levels of difficulty.
  • Just come when you can.
  • Two groups: The Eights do 7-9 miles; The Tens do 9-12 miles (and more ascent).
  • Move freely between the two groups whenever you want to.
  • A library of nearly 350 diverse walks within 30 miles of Ilkley.
  • Enjoy wonderful scenery and friendly company.
  • Explore The Dales, South Pennines, Forest of Bowland and more.
  • Meet in Ilkley or drive straight to the starting point.
  • Car sharing from Ilkley, Addingham and Skipton arranged each week.
  • Experienced walkers and capable leaders - novices welcome.
  • A programme with details of the weekly walks published every four months.
  • A map and profile of each route distributed by email every week.
  • A slide show and a lunch each year.
  • Occasional coach trips and holidays.
  • No formal membership or subscription - just contribute to petrol costs.
