It offers the opportunity for Christians to meet regularly to enjoy hillwalking and Christian fellowship. Members hail from across Scotland and other parts of the U.K. and come from a wide variety of occupations and church denominations. However anyone is welcome to come to join us on our walks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What we do<br><\/strong>The Club organises weekend meets about once a month. We also have a few day walks on a Saturday and an occasional mid-week walk or longer weekend. We walk mainly in Scotland and very occasionally go further afield. The level of walking varies from a day&#8217;s walking over several Munros, to a weekend on a Scottish island with its smaller hills. &nbsp;Please check the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.christianhillwalking.co.uk\/?page_id=711\">programme<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.christianhillwalking.co.uk\/?page_id=2\"> <\/a>for information on events.<br>On weekend meets, the group normally gathers on the Friday night at a youth hostel, mountaineering club hut, Christian Centre or self-catering accommodation. We aim to have a time of informal worship together at some stage during weekends, and there is the option of attending a local church service on a Sunday, if there is one nearby.<br>If you can\u2019t make a full weekend, it is often possible to come for the Saturday or Sunday only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-7\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column
