Welcome to Stonehouse Walking Festival

We are looking forward to our 5th festival in 2024. We will once again be celebrating the wide range of scenic walks possible around the Stonehouse area, also showcasing some walks having added specialised interest. The Festival offers free, guided group walks, including: level field and woodland footpaths, gently rolling fields, scenic views, canal, river and rail trails, walks for restricted mobility, family fun walk, history walk, tree walks, picnics, pub and cafe stops. 

 

Please read our guidelines before choosing your walks with us.
