The Meningitis Trust - Five Valleys Walk

Five Valleys Walk - Sunday 27 September 2009

If you haven’t taken part in the Meningitis Trust’s Five Valleys Walk before, you really have been missing out!

The walk is 21 miles, but don’t let that put you off! You can do as little or as much as you want. It takes in some of Gloucestershire’s most beautiful countryside, weaving up and down its famous five valleys. This year will mark our 22nd event. You can get together with your family, friends, colleagues, walk alone, bring your dog, give your team a theme, dress up….the choice is yours.

The shortest section is less than a mile long, so participation has never been easier! Walk just one section, link several together, or tackle the whole route. You can start and finish at any of the checkpoints, some of which will be themed.

There is a section that is perfect for pushchairs and wheelchairs as it follows a cycle path from our Dudbridge checkpoint to Nailsworth.

Free shuttle buses are laid on, courtesy of Stagecoach, to take you back to your vehicle wherever you decide to finish your walk. Free drinking water, maps to help you navigate the route and lots of encouragement are available at every checkpoint from our friendly marshals.

The registration fee for adults costs £7 in advance, £10 on the day; children, £5 in advance, £8 on the day. We also have a family price for two adults and three children of £20 in advance and £25 on the day.

Get registered, get sponsored and get walking!
