The Club arranges one-day meets, known as Day Meets (though a few are “Overnighters”!), roughly every fourth weekend throughout the year. They are usually advertised by reference to a particular mountain or walking route, but not everyone need tackle that particular objective, and there is no question of Day Meet participants going there in one large group. Destinations are as varied as possible, going farthest afield in the longer daylight hours of summer.
These are less strenuous (and sometimes low-level, e.g. coastal) walks, popular with those who have time off mid-week. They are usually held on the last Thursday of every month, within an hour’s drive from Aberdeen. Participants meet at a central location to share cars, or at the starting point. There is a stop for a sandwich lunch, and often a visit to a local café for tea afterwards.
