WALKS PROGRAMME.

Our new programme of walks, covering October to March 2026, is now available in both printed or e-version form. We continue with the very popular varied programme from all day Coach Rambles to the weekly Thursday short walks from Horwich Leisure Centre. For the first time we are going to do the GM Ringway Walks, in stages, over the next two years. Please contact us at boltonramblers@hotmail.co.uk for more information.

1. Download the App from Google Play Store (search for Ramblers App)
2. From the home screen, select 'walking' at the bottom of the page
3. Couple of methods from here. Suggest you select 'led walks'
4. Select my group
5. You will now see a map. Select the icon in the centre top right (looks like two squares on top of each other.)
6. Select Ordnance Survey
7. Press done.
8. If you expand the map by pinch and expand, you will zoom into Ordnance Survey maps
9. Pressing the right-hand symbol that looks like a circle will take you to your location that you can again expand on.
Another very useful feature is to click on the top menu entitled 'list' and you will find a handy way of finding our walks.
