On the final day of the festival we were at Inverness Castle where Sanjay Das Photography led a small group on our photography walk and showed us how to get the best out of our smartphone cameras while, almost unknowingly, racking up the steps.

Yet another new partner for this year's festival was the Inverness Royal British Legion Pipe band. Because marching is, of course, another form of walking.

Among the new partners for this year's festival is the Inverness Caledonian Thistle Trust. When we heard they staged walking football sessions at their new community hub we knew we had to invite them to be part of the fun.
