This year, our programme features a wide range of walks and activities designed to be accessible for people of all ages and abilities. With over 20 routes under three miles, including easy-access paths without stiles, as well as longer trails suited for trampers and mobility scooters, there’s something for everyone. For those with sensory needs, we have thoughtfully curated experiences to enhance your time in nature.

Whether you’re seeking a gentle one mile stroll designed for individuals living with Parkinson’s, a buggy-friendly three-mile walk through serene parkland, a beginner’s nature-bumble around Beacon Hill to explore tree life, or a more energetic ten-mile trek around Calke Abbey and it’s reservoirs, our festival offers something for every
interest and ability.

Thank you to all the organisations and individuals who have helped to create the 2025 National Forest Walking Festival.
