White Rose Walks is a delightfully informal and friendly walking group based in Pickering who have walks to suit all ages and abilities.  Groups are smaller than  average and dogs are welcome at all times. We walk two or three times a week throughout the year (except for August)  and there is no charge except when minibus transport is used.   We not only walk around the Pickering area, but we also take you to the outlying villages and moors and dales – some parts you can only see through walking.   We have occasional weekend walks and long distance holidays. Email: pickeringwalks@yahoo.co.uk

Full programme available from Tourist Information.
