Saturday 13 May

The first day of the walking festival starts off with a bang.

Join the Hairy Hikers on ‘a Bit of a Beast’, the shorter version of the Beast of Boslover walk, which passes through some of the best sites of Bolsover during its more manageable 10-mile route. Not only will this trail allow you to take in the fantastic countryside in the area but also the historic architecture dotted all around.

If vast open expanses are more your thing, then you will love the Moors the Merrier walk through the open scrub and woodland of the Eastern Moors. This 10-mile ramble is free to attend but its organisers are accepting donations on behalf of the mountain rescue and air ambulance services.

Bookings open on February 13 at 10am.
