Rotherham Metro Ramblers is a friendly and sociable local walking group who have organised walks on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The group offers walks ranging from five miles to about 10 miles, covering a wide area from local Rotherham walks to those in the Peak District, and sometimes in North Nottinghamshire, East, and West Yorkshire.
They also organise an annual coach ramble and a walking holiday. You are very welcome to try a couple of walks with them. For more information, visit www.ramblers.org.uk/rotherham-metro.
