Group of people walking outdoors

Our Feel Good Walks are suitable for anyone to join and are free. They provide a great way for people to get out and about, meet new people and explore some of the beautiful green spaces Waltham Forest has to offer.

Walking is a great way to explore the borough, a great way to keep active, stay healthy, and it's good for physical and mental well-being, too.

So come along and join us on our Feel Good Walks. Just turn up on the day, there’s no need to book in advance. Please note, there are no official walks on bank holidays.

If you would like to start a walking group for neighbours and friends or support an existing walk as a Walk Leader, please get in touch. We provide full training and support for the role and we are looking for more Walk Leaders to join the team.
