National Walking Month

Whether you’re a wild-weather wanderer, a solitary stroller, a hardcore hiker or a weekend walk-and-talker, get involved in National Walking Month in May 2025 to celebrate everything you love about getting out in nature.

 

What is National Walking Month?

National Walking Month is an annual campaign that promotes the benefits of walking. It’s an opportunity to celebrate walking’s positive impact on physical health, mental wellbeing, and the environment – whether you do it for leisure, fitness or your daily commute. 

During National Walking Month, the Ramblers shares inspiration on social media, invites everyone to get involved with local group walks and, in 2025, we’ll be shining a spotlight on Britain’s Favourite Path.  

 

More about the Ramblers 

The Ramblers is Britain’s walking charity. We open the way so everyone can enjoy the benefits of walking. We campaign for the public’s right to enjoy the outdoors, protect paths, build skills and offer different ways to get out into nature.  

We’ll always keep access to nature on the agenda. Where it is under threat, we’ll fight to protect it.
