The Purbeck WALX festival (formally the Purbeck Nordic Walking Festival) in Dorset will enter its fifth year in 2021 having sadly missed 2020 due to Coronavirus.
Join WALX on the 17th, 18th and 19th SEPTEMBER 2021 for a bigger and better event!
Explore this stunning area on the Jurassic coast and take part in walks in iconic locations like Brownsea Island, Thomas Hardy’s cottage and Old Harry Rocks. We have hundreds of walks for all levels, with or without poles. All led by trained leaders and all with an essence of adventure, food or fun (or perhaps all 3!)
Every year we run a FESTIVAL in Dorset – for the past 4 years it was known as the PURBECK NORDIC WALKING FESTIVAL but for 2020 (virus permitting) it will become the Purbeck WALX Festival as it has combined with another long established festival (formerly the Swanage Walking Festival)
Our WALX Masters also put on smaller regional get togethers, sadly our RUSTICK event in the Peak District has been cancelled for May 2020
We are really excited about the event in September which is growing year on year click HERE for the Events website to see how plans are shaping up for this year.
