Welcome to Kington Walks

Kington Walks is made up of a group of local volunteers who are passionate about walking. We organise two annual Walking Festivals that are well supported by our community and by many visitors to our characterful little town. Kington is a great centre for walking, located on the Herefordshire-Radnorshire border at the intersection of the Offa’s Dyke Path with five popular regional trails. Walking is at the heart of all that Kington Walks does. In addition to our Festivals, we lead a community group that looks after our local footpaths and we run Kington’s Walking for Health scheme. 

Our Festivals offer a taste of the superb walking country that surrounds us in Kington, through a varied menu of walks led by our enthusiastic team of volunteer walk leaders. Our walks, short or long, feature dramatic landscapes, local history from the ancient to the industrial, arts, natural history, and of course our many excellent town and village pubs. We are supported by a range of local businesses who sponsor our walks, and by our Town Council who have also generously supported the development of our new website, bringing Kington together to offer a warm welcome to walkers underlined by our status as a Walkers are Welcome town.

Whether you are joining us for the first time, come back year after year, or are local to Kington, we are always delighted to see both new and familiar faces, and we hope you enjoy your walks as much as we do.
