Monday 15 May

Monday hosts a wide variety of walks as part of the festival, including those for all ages and abilities.

The Accessible and Friendly walk at Eastwood Park has no set distance or pace so you can join for a leisurely stroll around the hard surfaced paths. Finishing with refreshments at the Pavilion, this is set to be a lovely relaxing morning and with the great play area at the park it will make a lovely family outing too.

If parks and outdoor spaces sounds appealing but you prefer something a bit more challenging, the Chesterfield Green Gems 6-mile walk might be just the thing for you. Alternatively, this day also hosts the ‘Theer and Back’ walks taking place during the festival. As a lovely evening stroll around the Bolsover countryside, this leisurely 5-mile walk is the perfect way to unwind

The Nordic Walking Taster provides a great opportunity to try your hand at something new, starting with a short lesson in the basic techniques and then progressing to a walk around Holmebrook. If you find this style to your liking, there is a longer walk around Holmesfield the following day.
