“The Roaches and Hen Cloud from Tittesworth” sold out…

Three more weeks until the start of the festival!

But there are still places on the 5pm return which gives you ~2 hours at the beer festival.

But plenty more walks available, many that don’t require booking.

Sold out I’m afraid… popular again!

By ‘eck – that was popular. One wonders whether it’s a lovely walk or the cake that has made it so popular.

Your feedback is most appreciated to help us improve the festival. Please take 5 minutes to fill in the survey form.

It’s not long now everyone until the walking festival kicks off this weekend. Join us for a soft launch at the Poachers Inn on Friday evening where you can meet some of the team and talk about the walks over a drink.

Whilst it might be a bit blustery today, the weather for next week is looking lovely. Fingers crossed. There are still a few tickets left for the coach trip walks this weekend:

The first is a 7 mile walk back from Whaley Bridge. The second is a longer 13 mile walk from Hayfield over Chinley Churn. The views from the later will be spectacular if not a little windy 🙂

There are also a couple of tickets left for the “Working up a Thirst” walk and visit to Torrside Brewery. This is a 10 mile walk – it says “Strenuous” but it’s not that bad! Gradual climb up to the Bowstones Ridge and then it’s *mainly* downhill, well apart from Black Hill. The bus returns to Bollington at 4:30pm and 5:30pm. There isn’t a tour at the brewery – we’re just there to enjoy the beer. But book soon as the last few tickets will soon go for this fun event:

See you all over the next week!
