Walks in Lancashire

Possibly more famous for it’s cities, football & industrial past – but Lancashire has some astoundingly beautiful places.

We also, with all of our walks, aim to prove that you can find wonder anywhere – so some walks will start in towns – others will be out in the countryside – but they’ll all offer you somewhere to get away from your worries, to have a chance to meet people, talk & really be heard.
