From riverside trails and woodland paths to gentle strolls through parks and nature reserves, hundreds of opportunities are being offered this summer to help people get active, improve their wellbeing and discover more of North Lincolnshire.

The new Walking North Lincolnshire summer programme features dozens of free led walks taking place across towns, villages and beauty spots throughout June, July and August, with routes designed for all ages and abilities.

Whether people are looking for a gentle one-mile accessible walk, a social walk with friends, a longer five-mile trail route or even Nordic walking, there is something for everyone.

The programme takes in locations across the whole of North Lincolnshire, including Barton-upon-Humber, Winterton, Epworth, Brigg, Alkborough, Goxhill, Belton, Wrawby, South Ferriby, Haxey, Scotton and Scunthorpe.

Cllr Rob Waltham, leader, North Lincolnshire Council, said: “Sometimes the best things are right on your doorstep. These walks are a fantastic way to get out, get active, meet new people and explore parts of North Lincolnshire you may never have visited before.

“Walking is one of the simplest ways to improve your health and wellbeing, but it is also about enjoying our countryside, our parks and our communities. Whether you are taking your first steps towards being more active or already enjoy regular walks, there is something in this programme for you.”

Alongside the led walks programme, residents can also take part in a wide range of community wellbeing activities, including walking football, walking cricket, strength and balance sessions, social groups, parent and pushchair walks and low-impact exercise classes.

Cllr Christine Patterson, cabinet member for healthy communities, said: “We want North Lincolnshire to be a place where people can live healthy, active and independent lives. Programmes like this help people improve their physical health, boost their mental wellbeing and make new connections within their communities.

“The fact that so many activities are free or low cost means more people can take part and benefit.”

No booking is required for the led walks – residents can simply turn up and join in. Full details of all walks and activities are available through Walking North Lincolnshire and LiveWell North Lincolnshire.
