NK Walking Festival
Heart of Lincolnshire, North Kesteven
Immerse yourself in the beauty and tranquility of North Kesteven's towns, villages, and countryside, taking part in over 60 walking and outdoors events this summer at the NK Walking Festival 2022. There is a walk for everyone at every ability during the festival, with short saunters and social strolls, to wellbeing walks, longer hikes and even a bit of Gruffalo spotting too. The NK Walking Festival is a celebration of the countless walking opportunities available within the district and you'll be led by knowledgable and friendly volunteer guides to discover more of North Kesteven’s 356 square miles of picturesque villages, medieval churches and thriving landscapes. See the full list of walks on Hill Holt Wood's website and download your programme to start planning your visit to the festival.
