The inaugural Blue Mountains Festival of Walking will be held from 8-15 October at locations across the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage area. A celebration of nature, the health benefits of walking, acknowledgment of Aboriginal custodianship and culture, the event will also pay homage to the history, heritage and conservation of this region. The event program will offer walks ‘in gear’ from yesteryear, photographic exhibitions, walks to mystery locations, plus guided and self-guided activities from challenging wilderness treks to gentle street strolls.
