15 walks to be held throughout the weekend at different locations across the city.
On Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th May, The Parks Trust is inviting people to join them in their Walking Festival to explore somewhere new and enjoy Milton Keynes’ beautiful and inspiring landscapes.
Walks include a 10 mile walk from Stony Stratford to Haversham and a circular walk from Whaddon Village.
The Walking Festival forms a key part of the The Parks Trust and Milton Keynes Council’s 50 Walks for MK50, organised for the city’s 50th birthday celebrations.
Julie Dawes, Events & Community Engagement Manager at The Parks Trust, said: “We are all hugely excited about this year’s Walking Festival, which looks set to be the best yet. We’re incredibly grateful to Milton Keynes Council, and our own volunteers, for their help in organising and running this weekend, as without them it would not be possible to offer such an exciting and inspiring programme of walks.
“Walks are available for people of all ages and abilities – whether you prefer a gentle stroll or a long hike there’s sure to be an option for you. These walks are a great opportunity for us to involve and engage the local community with the variety of parks, woodlands and lakes that are spread across Milton Keynes. Walkers can explore somewhere new, learn more about the city’s heritage, and even spot some wildlife.”
Spaces on walks can be booked online. Visit http://www.theparkstrust.com/whats-on/event-details/1667 to book tickets and find out more information.
