What is National Walking Month?

National Walking Month is a UK-wide campaign encouraging people to walk more – an easy, free way to stay active and healthy. 

Throughout May, individuals, communities, and organisations host walking challenges, share scenic routes, and promote the many benefits of regular walking.

How to get involved

Charities like the BHF (British Heart Foundation) offer several events across the country. 

Highlights include:

  • The Isle of Wight Challenge: A stunning route along southern cliffs past iconic landmarks like The Needles
  • The Jurassic Coast Ultra Challenge: Explore beautiful coastal views starting at Corfe Castle
  • London to Brighton Challenge: Join around 2,000 walkers over the May Bank Holiday weekend
Coastal campsites: our pick of the best in Britain
