05. Group Walks 

Walks are broadly of two types: longer ones of 5-8 miles and shorter ones of 3-4 miles, the former are generally more challenging and the latter tailored rather more for those wanting a more leisurely outing. Most walks are circular in nature, incorporating sections of the Coastal Path linked with inland routes. All walks are informal, offering an ideal atmosphere in which both to meet and to make friends. Depending upon the leader, walks may, e.g., offer insights into local birdlife, history or geology. At the end of a walk, especially the shorter ones, we often contrive to sample the local food and drink. You should be a FOACP to come on  walks but newcomers are  welcome to join us for two walks. 

For all our walks

Please ensure you have sufficient food and plenty of liquid (especially on hot days).

It is a condition of our Insurance on all walks, for your own safety, that you are equipped with adequate clothing, including walking boots or walking shoes and carry 'In Case of Emergency' contact details. 

On some walks dogs may not be allowed.  Walkers should be aware that it can be dangerous to enter fields that have cattle and their calves, with a dog, even if it is on a lead, please see the advice from NFU below.

If the weather is very poor a walk may be cancelled.   If you are ever in doubt if the walk will take place, or if you have any queries about a walk, please contact the walk Leader. 

Advice for those walking with dogs

When walking with dogs in fields with animals, the advice from the NFU is to keep your dog close and under effective control on a lead. Avoid getting between cows and their calves. If you feel threatened by animals protecting their territory or young do not run, move to the edge of the field, and if possible find another way round. In the spring it’s especially important for walkers to be sympathetic to farm animals rearing their young and to give them space. Let the dog go if you are being charged- the cattle will probably then chase the dog.

Timetable

Unless stated otherwise,  for all walks we will meet at 10.15 for a 10.30 start. Full details of all walks are emailed to members approx. 1 week before the walk.

In addition to the list below, our 2025-2026 programme for 25 guided walks around the whole of Anglesey’s stunning Coastal Path can be downloaded here (pdf). These walks will be celebrating the 20 year anniversary of the Friend’s of The Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path. Enjoy the changing seasons as you take in the unrivalled scenery, varied flora, fauna and geology.  You can be sure of great walking and of course, good company.
