This hiking club was formed in 1903 and only Gentlemen (not all males!) were invited to join, usually by personal recommendation.
As of December 2016 all adults are welcome to apply for membership - which is almost always approved - once they have completed three walks with the club.
As of October 2017 our membership is approximately 60 including 3 female members. The average age (of all members) is still high but we welcome adult walkers of all ages.
