The walks are divided into three categories for guidance; (a), (b) and (c).

With (a) faster and longer walks, (b) a bit slower and generally a bit shorter. (c) walks are more relaxed in terms of distance and pace and are organised more informally. The details of announced (c) walks are available in our Upcoming Walks Forum and are also sent out via email to the Trafford Walkers members' email list. Alternatively, you can call the walks co-ordinator at a pre-arranged time - Friday evening 6-8 PM.

Should you have any questions about the walks, feel free to ask them on the Upcoming Walks Forum or members can contact the walk leader directly through the details available on the full walklist.

Walks are graded as follows:

EASY - Generally flat with little or no climbing or gradients

EASY MODERATE - Undulating country on good paths and gentle gradients

MODERATE - Undulating country with some stiffer / longer gradients but nothing too difficult

HARD MODERATE - Rougher undulating country with some fairly steep / long gradients

STRENUOUS - Very rough country with steep and long gradients where the use of hands may be required
