Dorset WALX Festival

The Dorset WALX Festival is a week-long celebration of walking, set against the breathtaking backdrop of Dorset’s coast and countryside. Whether you prefer scenic coastal hikes, gentle wellness strolls, or a vigorous long-distance challenge, there’s a walk for every fitness level. Themed routes take you past historic landmarks, wildlife havens, and even cider farms, while expert-led workshops cover topics like Nordic walking, stretching, and wellbeing. At the end of the day, walkers gather at the Festival Hub near Corfe Castle to enjoy live music, hearty food, and a friendly atmosphere. It’s the perfect way to discover Dorset’s beauty on foot and meet like-minded adventurers.

Please note, you will be required to buy a pass in advance to take part in walks and activities.
