Walking for Fun

Getting out into the countryside can be fun and is also good for your health.  With this in mind the Dearne Valley Group of the Ramblers Association have recently produced a series of free leaflets each promoting one of seven circular walks within the Dearne Valley area.

Each of the leaflets provides detailed directions and a sketch map of the route as well as details about the Ramblers Association and the Dearne Valley Group.  If you would like to know more, contact details are provided on the leaflets.

Each of these leaflets has been reproduced on this website with kind permission.
