DUHWS - Hill Walking

Hey,
Was just wondering if anyone here has joined the Hill Walking Society here? Its amazing, just got back from the Lake District, having been on the walks for most of the Saturdays I have been here.

If anyone likes hill walking but hasn't joined, do it!!!

If I go to Durham I would like to join this society.

What equipment do you need?

Boots and trousers which aren't jeans is all they ask for. I take a rucksack, a fleece, waterproof top and trousers and food/drink. Not much is needed.

Cool

Is it very strenuous or designed to be accessible for most people?

Well they run 4-6 walks per week, designed for everyone, so the walks range from easy to medium to strenuous, so yeh they are designed for all.

Medium/Strenuous, cos i'm well hard like.

Depends of the leader too, if its someone you like, and if the walk is going somewhere nice, but normally one of the longer ones, they are fun.
