A Guide for the Day
There are many and varied reasons to hire a guide for the day. The main reason though is to give walkers the confidence to tackle walks that they may not feel they have the confidence to do on their own – opening up new and hopefully interesting experiences. It matters not whether the walks are short or long, riverside strolls or full day tramps over the higher peaks, everyone has their own goals and challenges and achieving them can be extremely satisfying. It is also great fun.
Bring your children and/or your dogs – all are welcome and particularly with children it is great to offer them a chance to enjoy our fabulous countryside.
The guides at Where2walk are all fully qualified Mountain Leaders with up to date First Aid qualifications for outdoor situations. More importantly they are passionate about the areas they walk in and knowledgeable about the landscape, the people who live and work there offering more than just a route finding expert.
The guides are available for hire in both the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District and will meet you at a suitable spot before heading off for the day. All you need to decide is if you want to take one of the many walks on this site or let us know the type of walk you wish to do and then turn up with suitable and appropriate equipment. All this entails is good stout boots, waterproofs and a hearty sandwich for lunch.
A guide will cost £120 for up to 6 adults (£180 for the full 3 Peaks day) and an extra £20 for every extra adult on the trip. Accompanied children (u16) come for free.
