Most Saturday walks make use of public transport to reach places near Liverpool and in Cheshire and Wirral. The walks are of a moderate nature on easy terrain, fairly leisurely, with little ascent and usually involving distances ranging from 5 to 8 miles. Between March and October a coach is used once a month to reach places farther afield, the coach fee for members is £13. The coach leaves from Liverpool Lime Street, but where the destination is south of the river there is an additional pick-up at Hamilton Square, Birkenhead and a similar drop-off on the return trip. On these coach trips non-walkers are welcome as the destination is usually an attractive town which can be explored.
