Ramblers wellbeing walks with Active Blackpool

Ramblers Wellbeing Walks are short walks ranging from 30 to 60 minutes that take place across Blackpool. 

The walks are designed to help you take the first step towards better health, wellbeing and happiness. We want to get you out of the house, stretch your legs and enjoy the fresh air. We plan our walks to include some of the most scenic locations around town such as Stanley Park, Herons Reach, Martin Mere and the Promenade. 

All our walks are led by our fabulous exercise referral team with the help of volunteers and are a relaxed and sociable way to get your daily exercise.
