Bedfordshire Festival of Autumn Walks

Following on from the roaring success of the first Bedfordshire Festival of Autumn Walks - Bedfordshire Ramblers are delighted to announce that plans are well underway for the second Festival.

The dates for 2024 are 7th to 15th September. Please put the dates in your diaries. We are hoping to build on the number of walks being offered and ensure that there is a good spread of walk types to appeal to all abilities across times that should suit all.

We are reaching out to our neighbouring Ramblers groups, inviting them to step across the county border and come and explore our beautiful little county with us! There are lots of walks in the South of the county.

There are plans afoot to offer the "walk and sail" trip on the John Bunyan boat, along the Great River Ouse, but places are limited and will need to be booked in advance. We are also hoping to offer the opportunity to walk the Greensand Ridge over two days.

As before the Festival offers an opportunity to encourage people to come and experience walking and the Ramblers, along with finding out a bit more about some of the hidden or not so hidden secrets of this little sung county.

Look us up on our dedicated Facebook page Bedfordshire Festival of Autumn Walks or our webpage at www.bedswalkfest.co.uk/walks, details will be added as they become available. Happy Walking!
