Welcome!
Welcome to the website of the Inner London Area of the Ramblers.
The Ramblers is Britain's biggest charity working to promote walking. It
exists to facilitate for the benefit of everyone, the enjoyment and discovery
that walking outdoors can bring, and to promote respect for the life of the
countryside.
The Inner London Area comprises seven groups located in London. It is just one
of many Areas that make up the national organisation.
Although London may not seem like an obvious location for walkers, there are
over 5,000 Ramblers members living here, making Inner London one of the most
populous areas for walkers to live in the UK.
The Thames Path, which runs through our Area, is the most walked path in the
country!
As well as walking in our own area, including in the very heart of London, we
also enjoy excursions in much of South East England, with groups regularly
making trips to the Chilterns, South Downs, South Coast, Kent, Essex, Surrey,
Hertfordshire, as well as further afield.
Almost all our walks are accessible by public transport, be it mainline train
or tube. The walks range in length from 2 to 20 miles, with most averaging
around 8 to 10 miles. They mainly take place at weekends, when there are
usually at least a dozen walks to chose from across the Area's groups. Some
groups also organise evening strolls, and the Inner London Area itself puts on
fortnightly strolls on Saturdays throughout the year and regular canal walks
on summer evenings.
