# Join Us

Everyone is most welcome to come along to 'try' a walk first - please have a look at the [walks programme](https://www.ekwg.co.uk/walks) and just 'turn up on the morning'. If you require extra information about the walk, or there is something you are not sure of, please [contact](https://www.ekwg.co.uk/walks) the person in charge of that particular walk.

You can try our EKWG walks three times free of charge. If you would like to walk more regularly with us, the only payment is membership to [Ramblers](https://www.ramblers.org.uk). 

When you join Ramblers ask to be assigned to EKWG (our group number is KT50). You will still be able to walk with other Ramblers groups but being assigned to EKWG means you are eligible to join [EKWG social events](https://www.ekwg.co.uk/social), will be included in our newsletter circulation etc.

As a member of Ramblers, you'll also benefit from a range of exclusive offers and discounts from partner organisations — from outdoor gear and walking holidays to guidebooks and more. Take a look at what's available below.
