Welcome to the

Kirkcaldy Ramblers’ Website

Kirkcaldy Ramblers are the Ramblers’ Association Group in Kirkcaldy. Part of the Forth Valley, Fife & Tayside Area, membership of the Group covers the KY1, KY2 and KY3 postcodes. If your home address fall within these postcode you will be allocated to our Group when you join The Ramblers’ Association at UK level.

Membership gives you the advantage of the backing of the UK’s leading organisation for all things walking. Every group in the UK has a full and varied walks programme and as a member of the Kirkcaldy Group, in addition to all the other benefits RA membership brings, you receive the joint Area walks programme and the Group newsletter twice a year. With 15 groups of all walking abilities you get a walks programme that has a choice of all grades of walk every weekend throughout the year.

Every walk is led by a member of the local group and are, themselves keen walkers and are leading walks they know well. All are volunteers, and if anyone knows how to get the most out of walking, it’s other walkers.

Forget the myth that The Ramblers are all people wearing woolly hats, The Ramblers are about anyone who enjoys walking in the countryside. Check out the group’s walks programme on the left and get more information on the Ramblers at the Ramblers’ Association website! Even if you don’t live in Kirkcaldy, there is a group near you. There is also an increasing number of “under 40’s” groups across the country.

Walking is the easiest form of exercise there is, and as everyone becomes more health aware, joining the Ramblers is far cheaper than joining a gym! Walking with a group can be a great social experience. It’s a great way of meeting new people. You don’t have to walk with a group if you join. Many groups have a programme of social events and as a memeber you can take part in those.

As a member there are many other benefits as well. Not only do you get the walk programme and newsletter, you also get a Scottish Newsletter and the Ramblers’ magazine “Walk”. On top of all that the annual Ramblers’ Handbook. You can also get discounts at many outdoor stores all over the country!

The walks programme is published twice a year and is also accompanied by the group newsletter
