Great news! At a recent meeting of the Around Corby Walking Festival working group, the dates for next years Festival were confirmed as April 30th, May 1st and May 2nd.

There's a great deal to organise but briefly, the format will be slightly different so the enjoyment of both walkers and the local community can be enhanced.

Watch this space as they say.

BUT that doesn't mean you can not walk Around Corby at any time. The surrounding countryside is fabulous with a terrific selection of established walks on public footpaths and bridleways. I'm told there is to soon be a walk all around Northamptonshire, part of which will come through the Borough, and don't forget that Jurassic Way goes right through the north of the Borough too.
