PEOPLE in Pendle are being invited to get their hiking boots on and take to the hills at a walking festival to be held later this year.
The event, the first one to be held in Pendle, will be held from Friday, September 3, to Monday, September 6.
Each day of the festival will feature about five different walks of varying lengths throughout the borough, some easy, and some more challenging.
Other activities are also planned.
Mike Williams, Pendle Council's tourism development officer, said: "The Walking Festival is part of the council's efforts to encourage tourism, but will be an enjoyable event for both residents and visitors.
"We've started talking to local walking groups and other organisations who might be able to help put on guided walks for the event.
"But I would like to hear from experienced walkers and walk leaders, in or around Pendle, who may be able to offer a walk for this event."
