About this event

About this Event

We've partnered with Outdoors 4 All to bring Let's Walk Burnley.

Our free walk leader-led canal walks are an easy way to get active and meet new people. We go at a gentle pace suitable for anyone who does not have a severe mobility difficulty and/or is not seriously unfit.

Our walks provide opportunities to enjoy the beauty of canals right on your doorstep. Each weekly walk is set at a gentle pace.

The walk starts at 1pm each Monday and the meet point is Finsley Gate Wharf.

Canals and rivers are the perfect places to boost your mood and improve your physical and mental health. Even in busy towns and cities, they provide special spaces where you can relax, recharge, and get your body moving. You may even learn a bit of history or see some awesome wildlife!

Points to note:

  • Ages 18 and over only.
  • We can only take people on the walk who have booked a place.
  • No dogs.
  • To help with parking, arrive no more than 15 minutes before your booked time.
  • If you book and then can’t come, please cancel your place via Eventbrite or reply to an email you received about the event.
  • Unsurfaced, rural towpaths in places.

Following your first attendance you will be given a link to book on for the rest of the 12 weeks.

Ramblers Walk Grade: Easy - walks for adults aged 18+ who do not have a severe mobility difficulty and/or is not seriously unfit. Route may include unsurfaced rural towpath.
