Richmond Walking and Book Festival, 28th Sept till 6th Oct 2019

September 26th 2019

This festival is a great opportunity for an autumn break; combining daytime walks led by knowledgeable guides, with evening talks from popular and emerging authors. You create your own programme; do as little or as much as you choose, of either or both. The Festival is centred in the lively and picturesque market town of Richmond, Just 6 miles from Brompton-on-Swale Bunkbarn (3 miles if walk directly along the bridle path from Easby).

The Walks Programme features walks of varying lengths that take you out into some of the most stunning scenery England has to offer, in the Yorkshire Dales and other less well visited areas within easy reach of Richmond.  We also offer shorter town-based walks of local interest and a programme of Health Walks. With at least 3 walks per day to choose from you will be spoilt for choice.

Everything you need to ensure a wonderful day or longer stay, whether a solo traveller or with a group of friends.   Find our more here.
