We are a friendly outdoor group based in West London. Our main outdoor activity is walking although we do occassionally do other activities such as cycling and pony-trekking. Ealing Outdoor Club is affiliated to the Youth Hostels Association (England and Wales) and has been in existence for over 60 years.
We have organised walks most Sundays. We meet in either Ealing or Uxbridge and drive to the start point of the walk. We walk in the Chilterns, Surrey and other areas around London. Walks are normally between 8 and 12 miles in length with a pub stop for lunch. Take a look at our current programme to get a better idea of where we go.
In addition to Sunday walks we have weekends away with organised walks each day. Our weekends away often coincide with Bank Holiday weekends. We stay at Youth Hostels if available, although some of our members prefer staying at B&B accommodation close to the Youth Hostel.
We have a programme of Social events as well as the outdoor events. These often take place on a Tuesday night at St Matthews Church Hall in Ealing.
Our Membership is made up of people with a diverse range of professions and backgrounds. Membership is open to people of any age although the majority of our members are over 30 years of age.
Come along to one of our Sunday walks if you are interested. You need to ensure that you have adequate clothing. Wearing a pair of walking boots is advisable. Please read our club policy regarding participation in club activities.
