2026 Festival - That's a wrap for our 21st anniversary Festival, we had a great time with over 400 of you, and our fabulous Walk Leaders, Co-Leaders and Back-markers, walking over 8,500 miles which is a third of the way around the Earth! It is always a delight and privilege to share our passion for walking and love for the stunning Ironbridge Gorge. Later in the year, the Gorge celebrates 40 years of UNESCO World Heritage Status and we will celebrating this milestone during our 2027 festival.
