Garstang Walking Festival - Garstang short walk

Garstang walking festival brochure cover 2025

Join our volunteer walk leaders for this easy, quite relaxed walk along the footpaths and canal towpaths of Garstang.

The views are splendid, taking in the Bowland hills and the lovely River Wyre. In good weather the terrain should be accessible to all, but with the requirement of good walking boots. If the weather has been inclement then the terrain may include a lot of puddles and, at worst, quite muddy areas. There will be no stiles on these paths. The walk should last an hour, however the occasional stop along the way to admire the scenery should be taken into consideration should anyone be eager to return. A laid-back attitude is the theme.

Suitable for all ages but no unaccompanied under 18’s (parent or guardian must stay with children at all times)
