2021

Welcome to the post Covid Doncaster Outsiders Walking Club website.

With lockdown now ended, our 2021 program of walks using Mayfield coaches to transport us to and from our destinations, has been finalised up until the end of the year.

So many of our members circumstances have changed over the lockdown that we now have plenty of room for new starters, so please get in touch if you would like to join us, for a fun packed Sunday day out. (Contact details at bottom of this page)

The coach leaves Doncaster Market Car Park at 8.00am generally every fourth Sunday (free parking on Sundays) for a full day out to enjoy a variety of interesting walks, in the Yorkshire Dales, North York Moors, Yorkshire Wolds, East Coast, Peak District etc.

The pick up route is to change for September.

Click on the ‘2021 Walk Dates‘ here or on the menu for the current program.

The coach fare is £12 and our coach company is Mayfields Travel.

With prior notification there is provision to pick up along the following route, before reaching the Market car park.

The coach pick up points and times for September are:-

                                     7.45am bus stop before the Winning Post, Balby, and the betting shop on Balby road

                                     7.55am Market Car Park

We recommend sturdy walking shoes/boots as we often cover uneven terrain and basic footpaths, 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.

There are generally two walking groups in the morning. The ‘A’ Team walk is between 8 and 11 miles and the ‘B’ walk is usually 2 or 3 miles shorter. Each have a mid walk stop for eating any sandwiches and drinks you bring, and will arrive at a welcoming pub in the early afternoon (In larger villages and towns there may be tea & coffee shops nearby if you prefer, but pubs often serve teas, coffees and none alcoholic drinks).

We usually take up to an hours break before the afternoon walk of around 3-4 miles, but if you’ve done enough or prefer to spend longer socialising with our entertaining members,  simply do your own thing or take it easy and have a look round the area.

The coach will generally depart around 4:30pm to 5.00pm to pick up the afternoon walkers and return to Doncaster.
In the Summer we often venture further from Doncaster, so can be later getting back home.(ie between 6.00 and 7.00pm)

We look forward to meeting you
