Hereford City Council has awarded £3,000 to Herefordshire Walking Festival CIC, to help fund the group’s ability to provide more walks and promotional materials!

The Walking Festival offers a wide variety of walking for all levels and interests, from 2 miles all the way up to 25 miles. There are various terrains to take part in walking across, accommodating for all abilities, including wheelchair friendly and visually impaired walks. The group is on record for saying; “What the County lacks in motorways, it more than makes up for in Walking Trails!”

Since the Covid-19 pandemic began, many have discovered the joys of outdoor activities, especially walking through nature. Not only have many been encouraged to partake in outdoor exercise, but they have also shown an increased interest in joining walking groups such as this.
