The Barnsley Walking Festival is back! There are more than 200 activities on offer for you to get walking this May.  From family walks to wellbeing walks and walking sports too, there’s lots of activities to choose from. Many are also free to attend!
Joining organised walking and other outdoor activities is a fantastic way to get those active minutes in, while also meeting new people and having fun! However, if joining an organised activity isn’t your thing, why not take a walk around your local area with friends or family?
Maybe you could leave the car at home and walk to the local shops or to school and back. Or maybe you could get off the bus a stop early? You might even venture further afield and visit some of the amazing green spaces we have in Barnsley.
Whatever you choose, walking is brilliant for physical health and mental wellbeing. So, what are you waiting for? Get out there and start walking!
Why not enter the Barnsley Walking Festival competition? To enter, simply share pictures of your walking adventures on Facebook and X (Twitter) using the hashtag #WhatsYourMove. Good luck!
