Bedfordshire Ramblers has announced the programme for the first-ever Bedfordshire Festival of Autumn Walks.
The Festival, offering over 30 walks, will run over nine days between 9 – 17 September with a plethora of walks to suit all ages and
abilities, from long walks, short walks, well-being and interest walks.
Walks are scheduled in the mornings and afternoons in addition to all-day walks and most do not require booking in advance. “The perfect
way to explore our beautiful little county on foot,” say the organisers.
Within Bedford Borough there are a couple of highlights to look out for, especially if you’ve never been on the John Bunyan Boat.
“Why not join us for a day trip combining a walk and a sail from Priory Park to Great Barford and back on Thursday 14 September,” said
Sandra Kelsey of Bedfordshire Ramblers.
“Walk as much or as little as you like. Booking is required and details can be found nearer the time on our website.”
If you’re new to walking and are worried about taking part, Sandra recommends trying one of the many well-being walks which are shorter,
flat and slower.
“These are running on 11, 12, 13, 14 September and are a great introduction to walking.”
To find out more about the full programme of walks, visit the Bedfordshire Ramblers website or keep up to date by following their
