Doncaster Outsiders
2024
Welcome to Doncaster Outsiders Walking Club, (founded in the 1970s) expect a warm inclusive welcome from our friendly approachable members, and a wonderful full day out.
Our walks are generally linear, supported by our luxury coach company Buckley’s, avoiding masses of cars descending on local car parks.
Click on the ‘2024 Walk Dates for our 2024 walk plan; for walks in the Dales, Wolds, Peaks and Moors with interesting, beautiful and historic themes within a wide radius of Doncaster.
The current price is £15 per walk for non-members. Members pay a membership fee and then £3 for the coach. (There are currently regular spaces for non-members available with the opportunity to become full members from January 2025).
The coach leaves Doncaster Market Car Park at 8.00am (parking charges now apply) generally every fourth Sunday for a full day out, including 7 or 10 miles in 2 groups, with an hours social break and an optional afternoon walk of up to 3 miles.
Buckley’s coach leaves Blaxton at 7.10am, with pick ups at Auckley 7.15am, St. Erics Road (Cantley Lane side) 7.20am, Winning Post 7.40am and Balby betting shops. The coach leaves Doncaster Market Car Park at 8.00am prompt, (there may be a York Road pick up at 8.05pm or when heading East 7.45am). If you want to be picked up, other than Doncaster Market Place, it must be pre arranged when booking.

We recommend sturdy walking shoes/boots as we often cover uneven terrain, basic footpaths and fells with mud, waterproofs in case of rain, a fleece when sat outside, and a drink/sandwiches. A full suggested ‘KIT LIST‘ is available by clicking here or on the menu.
Please read the Responsibilities page so that you know what to expect from our well organised walks.
There are two walking groups in the morning. The ‘A’ Team walk is between 8 and 10 miles and the ‘B’ walk is usually 2 or 3 miles shorter. Each have at least one mid walk stop for eating any sandwiches and drinks you bring, and will arrive at a welcoming pub, or a village/town, in the early afternoon. We do not route march and there is time for brief photo opportunities.
The coach generally departs around 4:30pm to pick up the afternoon walkers and return to Doncaster.
Summer walks are generally further from Doncaster than the Winter walks.
We look forward to meeting you.
Phil, Bev and the rest of the crew.
