Wednesday health walk at Gibside

Explore Gibside on a free guided walk.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event

Join walk leaders for a sociable saunter to get outdoors, enjoy the views and spot wildlife along the way. Head back to the café at the end for a well-earned hot drink (optional). This walk is adapted to group ability and could be up to 5 miles. If you feel a shorter, gentler walk would suit you better, check out our Tuesday health walks.

This event is free. Donations are very welcome and will go directly towards caring for heritage and wildlife at Gibside.

Every Wednesday, 11am-12.30pm. No need to book.
