Welcome to the Church Stretton Walking Festival website.
Unfortunately, we were unable to hold the Church Stretton Walking Festival this year, due to Covid-19. We are of course hoping to hold it in 2021.
Church Stretton Walking Festival is continuing to benefit from the injection of new energy and ideas provided by it's many volunteers.
Mainly made up of locals, the volunteers lead groups along favourite routes as well as lesser known ones and there's also a selection of themed walks, including the Map & Compass Course, the night time Stars in Your Skies Walk, and the Landscape Photography Walk. The festival attracts visitors from across the country as well as from further afield including Europe. As in previous years, we have the ever-popular Map & Compass courses on the weekend before the festival on Sunday 14th June so you can brush up on skills ready for the main festival.
Our thriving market town is always welcoming to visitors who can enjoy the varied local independent businesses whilst in the town or choose from one of the many excellent quality B&Bs to extend their stay. Why not stay and enjoy the local hospitality!
