Blairgowrie & District Hillwalking Club

2008-2009 programme of Meets and Events

 
 
To join a walk contact the meet secretary, Ian Cameron, on Newtyle 01828 650 409 by the Thursday evening before the meet OR by the on-line form by the Wednesday before the meet (this allows time to organise the bus or cars depending on numbers going).
Visitors are welcome and encouraged to come on the meets. You can come out with the club to see if you'd really want to join us on a regular basis or just because you're in the area and want to get into the hills with a like-minded bunch of people.
Visitors and New Members should check the Guidance page BEFORE their first walk!
Start times for all walks are for meeting the bus (or cars when appropriate) in the Wellmeadow, Blairgowrie. Pick up is also made at Alyth - 15 minutes BEFORE noted start time if the meet is to the NORTH, WEST or SOUTH of Blairgowrie, 15 minutes AFTER if to the EAST! If in doubt, please check with Ian Cameron.
Note: Ordnance survey map number are in black, Harveys map names are in orange.
