Welcome to the 'Around Corby' Walking Festival
Diary May 1st, 2nd & 3rd for a weekend of over thirty walks
with lengths from 3/4 of a mile (1.2km) up to 18
miles (25km) including a circumnavigation of the complete
35 mile (50km) 'Around Corby' walking route.
Except for short lengths of road walking, this is all on public
footpaths and takes in all the lovely rural villages that surround
the modern and thriving town of Corby.
The Festival programme contains enough for those who simply
enjoy walking for pleasure, relaxation and exercise and we've
included short walks for those who prefer just short strolls. In
addition,, themed walks are a feature with photography, history
and wildlife included.
