Ilam Park: Guided Walk: Seasonal Social Walk

Join us for a guided social walk, get to know the White Peak a little better and grow your confidence walking in a friendly group setting.

  • Booking essential
  • Free event

Discover the beauty of Ilam Park and the White Peak on a sociable guided walk. Whether you're new to the area or looking to explore further, this walk is a great opportunity to learn more about the landscape, meet new people, and enjoy a relaxed walk in good company. We'll take a gentle pace, making it perfect for building your walking confidence in a friendly and supportive group. We're aiming this year for four free social walks, giving you an opportunity to come along to more than one, learn a few new routes and grow your walking confidence.

We grade our guided walks A, B or C depending on how challenging the walk will be. This walk is graded B - a medium walk of 4.2 miles with some hilly sections.

Voucher is included for 10% off at Ilam Tea Room and free car parking redeemable on the day of the walk.

This event, like all our events is open to members of the National Trust and non members. All money raised goes straight back into looking after the White Peak.
