About us

Mountain Meanders Hiking Group

Mountain Meanders is one of several hiking groups under the auspices of the University of the Third Age (U3A).   We walk every Friday for between 3-6 hours all over the Peninsula. The age group is between 60 and 80 with the occasional exception. We do moderate to more strenuous walks. The pace is not too fast, as the emphasis is more on enjoyment, but the group is fit.  We do not put out a monthly program, but rather notify members of the following hike on a weekly basis once the weather conditions become more clear.  ISOme of our walks entail scrambling and bush-whacking. We cannot guarantee what time we return, so we recommend people joining the hike have no “uncancellable” arrangements on Friday afternoons. At the end of the hike  we usually pop into a nearby pub for a drink and maybe a snack.
