The Festival of Winter Walks runs annually over Christmas and the New Year period. It's a great opportunity to discover the pleasures and benefits of walking, while making the best of winter days and kick-starting those New Year's resolutions!
There will be hundreds of free woodland walks taking place all over the country between 20 December 2014 and 4 January 2015. It's a great way to burn off that Christmas dinner and have fun doing it with your loved ones!
Depending on how much you feel like doing, there will be short, easy trails you can enjoy with family and more challenging walks for the experienced hiker!
Many walks take place in various places in Scotland, England and Wales, each one guided by someone from Ramblers. Some will even have themes like 'fancy dress', 'tipsy toddles' and 'cake walks'.
Each walk will be about exploring the wintry landscape. It can seem more appealing to curl up indoors, but it's during winter that some of our most beautiful scenery appears.

Good Rambling Everybody!!!
