Book your tickets for the festival, taking place from 2 to 10 May 2026. Celebrate the local landscape and wildlife during nine days of walks and activities in and around Garstang, Forest of Bowland and Wyre.

From all the usual favourites such as walks through Grizedale valley and treks up to Nicky Nook, to strolls along Wyre's wonderful water ways like the Lancaster canal, rivers and coast, Garstang Walking Festival 2026 returns to celebrate the beauty of our local natural places. Join us as we wander from moorland to woodland, learning about local history, wildlife and much more.

Places can be booked on the event listings below. For any further enquiries, please contact greatoutdoors@wyre.gov.uk or call 01253 887502.

Please note that all bookable events will close at 1pm on the day before the event to allow our rangers sufficient preparation time. Attendance on the day without a booking will not be permitted.
