DYKE HIKES

Welcome to our website

Announcement

For some time, the group that organises Dyke Hikes have been considering de-constituting the group and ceasing the public advertising of the walks via a brochure and this website. At a meeting on February 23rd this was agreed.

Following the final walk in this winter season on 19th March this means that we are sadly closing the group, this website, publicising walks and circulating information.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us and walked with us and over the years.
