Walks
There are no planned walks in August for those of you who would like to walk before or after the meal on the 28th August at La Closerie de la Beyne - Rosemary will have information on the day about the local paths you can mention interest when making your booking.
Everyone taking part does so at their own risk. The DLCI do not employ qualified guides, leaders or first aiders. The DLCI and event organisers do not assume any responsibility for anyone attending the event.
Ideally, our walks are circular and take around two hours to complete and some have a cafe or restaurant at the end. If you know of any such walks which are suitable for our members, please tell us. If you are willing to lead the walk, that would be even better! Please,
send details to:
