The National Forest Walking Festival
The National Forest Walking Festival will return in Spring 2025.
The National Walking Month falls during May and we think this is one of the best times of the year to be outdoors in the National Forest. The drama of spring blossom, the heady scent of bluebells carpeting ancient woodlands, and the chance to see wildlife in abundance, are all wonderful for the body and soul.
The Forest story is one of huge landscape-scale transformation, from black coalfields to green tree-scapes. Three decades of forest creation in this part of the Midlands demonstrates how trees can transform landscapes, communities and the economy.
Dates for next year’s festival are to be confirmed – follow the Festival on Facebook for updates.
The National Forest Walking Festival is supported by East Staffordshire Borough Council, Leicestershire County Council, the National Forest Company, North West Leicestershire District Council, South Derbyshire District Council and a huge number of organisations that volunteer their time to design and lead walks.
