Cardigan Walks Festival Fri 17th Sept

admin — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 12:12:35 +0000

The weekend starts on the evening of Friday 17th September with a talk and reception at the Guildhall before a ‘town walk’ will help to acquaint visitors (and local people!) with Cardigan’s rich history and architectural heritage. It is free to take part in this year’s festival, however spaces are limited therefore you do need to book.

Over the course of the weekend there will be walks of varying demand and challenge, from a 3-4 mile ‘stroll’ up to 12-13 mile expeditions.

All walks will have leaders and support, and those that start or finish away from Cardigan will have transport available.
