Our sea shanties walk got off to a great start this morning thanks to Wrecked Again!

[Dawlish Walking Fest @dawlishwalk]

What will you be doing this weekend? We've still got walks for you to enjoy! Please note the foraging walk on Sunday is now fully booked with a waiting list and the Sea Shanties walk is not wheelchair accessible due to the viaduct closure for sea wall works. @visitsouthdevon

Due to the wet and windy weather forecast for tomorrow Friday Walk 22 Pump House to Pump House and Walk 23 Star gazing at Mamhead Obelisk are cancelled. Sorry for this disappointing news. The walks will not be rescheduled. Walk 21 Walking Meditation on the Beach will still be on.

Thanks to David Force for his great talk and walk today. 50 people joined to listen. The sun shone and caught us all out at the start including the photographer!

Tuesday is a full day for the Festival. Still time to pre-book.

Monday 26th September is looking to be a great day of the Festival! We have got four different walks so something for everyone - all the walks are FREE (and only the walk and draw needs to be pre-booked). All the others you can just turn up on the day! @visitsouthdevon

[Dawlish Walking Fest @dawlishwalk]

Our third walk of Saturday was led by local artist Angie Jenner - walk and draw along the seafront. Great turnout. If you missed it today have a good look through the programme as it is repeated during the week! https://t.co/dDgXumZKrZ

Dawlish Walking Festival 2021
Having reviewed the recent Government roadmap guidance the organisers have decided it is not possible for the event to take place in April/May 2021. We're sorry for this disappointing news. We look forward to a great Dawlish Walking Festival in 2022.
