It is with great regret that we have taken the decision to cancel this year’s AOG. Although the current restrictions on movement are only in place for three weeks initially, it now seems highly doubtful that the AOG could go ahead as scheduled at the end of July.
Welcome to the Gay Outdoor Club
The Gay Outdoor Club operates throughout Great Britain and provides a wide range of outdoor and indoor sports and recreational activities for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender men and women.
Our 1,500 members enjoy over 500 events each year including walking, cycling, mountain biking, canoeing, caving, rock climbing, mountaineering, skiing, swimming and badminton. Most of our events are one day but we also organise weekend and longer events such as hostelling weekends, an arctic adventure and a white water rafting expedition.
For more specialist activities we have groups for caving, rock climbing, cycling, swimming and skiing. Some of those events are for people with experience, but we also have events for novices.
Visitors to the website can get a good idea of our range of activities but only members can access full details of events. You can register now for a free trial account to gain full access to our site and events.
While the country is dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic, and people are being asked to stay at home, all GOC walks and events have been cancelled. We will review this on a regular basis, following guidance from the government.
Following the unopposed election of our trustees we have six spaces available on the board. Could you help with the running of our club?
The Gay Outdoor Club runs events for all ability levels. If you are new to the outdoors, or just want to enjoy the company of others, why not take a look at some of our easier walks coming up?
For the more adventurous we offer a number of Moutainous walks across the UK. Find some of the most stunning scenery and exhillerating walks that Britain has to offer!
Its not just about walking, we also regularly run swimming, cycling, caving, climbing and running events, to name just a few.
