YHA Festival of Walking – South West Events

A festival aiming to get people outdoors and enjoy the benefits of walking will be taking place this autumn. It’s part of the YHA’s Festival of Walking, which will take place at locations around England and Wales – including key locations in the south west.

Events include a number of free guided walks, social walks and women-only walks.

The YHA Festival of Walking is open to everyone, with a range of walks designed to suit a variety of abilities.
