A cracking day out for two of today’s festival walks!

Over at Parsonage Wood, walkers were treated to bluebells in full bloom—well worth the visit

And on the Vines & Views walk, it was sunshine, fresh green vines and plenty of great countryside views

Two very different walks, but both made even better by the weather (and good company, of course!).

A few walks still have spaces tomorrow if you fancy joining us! https://www.saltmarshcoastwalkingfestival.co.uk

Day 2 of our Spring Mini-Festival - what a beautiful day on our Woodham Walter to Blakes Wood walk!

Our walkers were treated to glorious sunshine and one of spring’s best sights—stunning carpets of bluebells stretching through the woodland. A real reminder of just how special this time of year is.

👉 There are still a few walks with spaces available - don’t miss your chance to experience it for yourself! www.saltmarshcoastwalkingfrstival.co.uk

What a lovely day for our Saltmarsh Stroll around Steeple Creek as part of the Spring Mini-Walking Festival!

We were joined by a fantastic group of walkers who enjoyed clear blue skies, peaceful estuary views and the fresh sea air along the seawall.

To top it all off, many of the group finished with a well-earned lunch at The Star

Days like this are what the festival is all about!
