Discover where walking and cycling can take you this summer with the Rutland Walking and Cycling Festival. Following huge success over the last 7 years, the festival is back for 2016 for a fun packed celebration of Rutland and its glorious countryside. Throughout the festival, led walks and bike rides will be available catering for all ages and abilities; therefore if you are new to the activity or have been participating for many years, there is something for you.

The festival will include on average 2 activities a day, with refreshments available after many of the sessions. The people of Rutland are encouraged to join the visiting walkers and cyclists who travel from far and wide, so why not make a day of it and get the family involved too. It’s a perfect opportunity to meet new people with similar interests, explore different areas across the historic county, whilst witnessing the breath taking views of the countryside.

Every year we encourage people to take to their feet and bike to feel the benefits of walking and cycling out in the fresh air. They are both recommended activities to lose weight, get more active and become healthier. Throughout the festival, there are various activities ranging from nordic walking to walking football and from mums and tots rides to maintenance classes. There really is something for everyone.
