Fungi Walks and Meetings

December 2024 update: Our 2024 programme of field events is now concluded. We'll be arranging two walks for Spring 2025, in April and May, the details for which will be available below in due course. Our Autumn 2025 programme will not be available below till July / August.

GENERAL INFORMATION:

Unless otherwise stated, ALL WALKS START AT 10.00 am AND FINISH BETWEEN 12.30 am AND 1.00 pm.

OUR WALKS ARE FOR MEMBERS ONLY, but if you'd like to come on a particular walk but are not yet a member, joining is very cheap and very easy: just click here. All are most welcome - especially families - and no previous experience is needed.

If weather conditions are bad (very windy, frosty or snowy) it would be wise to check with the leader before setting out.

Disclaimer - The Grid Reference given for each event is as accurate as we can make it and may not be at the exact location of the meeting place but should get you within a few hundred yards. Whilst every effort is made to ensure the Grid Reference and link to OpenStreetMap is correct BFG excepts no liability should you get lost. We now include the What3Words reference for the turn off spot from the road as an extra guide to each location. Clicking on the W3W link will open the app. Clicking on 'Navigate' will allow you to select your preferred navigation software (e.g. Google Maps).

NB: If any members find they are not regularly receiving Penny's information circulars before an event (these are sent out the day before booking opens for each event) or have maybe changed their email address, please get in touch with her.
