NOTE: In October we will have our final Walk event held in Shady Cove, OR. Unfortunately after 35 years the Rogue Valley Walkers will be coming to an end as an AVA affiliated volkswalking organization. Sadly we just cannot come up with anyone who wants to be in a club that plans walks, has consistent meetings and a club structure. 
It's hard to close this club but the movie, 'To Join or Die' speaks eloquently of the loss of clubs and the ultimate loss of social connections. 
If anyone is interested in becoming involved in leadership roles please contact us using the contact form. 
Personally I do not want to see the club close. 

    Walking for over 30 years in the Rogue Valley
    Our club typically sponsors over 20 AVA-sanctioned scheduled walks each year at various locations around the valley plus one biennial three-day event, which attracts hundreds of walkers from throughout the Northwest region, and offers many more new and/or challenging walks, hikes and biking events.  
     There are also well over 100 other events in Oregon and more than 1000 events around the U.S. through our affiliation with American Volkssport Association. 
    ​
    Come join us for some walking!
    Most walks are easy, flat, and suitable for strollers and well-behaved dogs on a leash. Walk at your own pace, with the group, or on your own. We offer 5k and 10k options on most walks.

    Everyone Is Welcome!
    Just show up at the scheduled meeting point to sign the register and get your walking map.
    $2 - non-club members (donation)
    ​$3 - club members receiving AVA credit
