Many people who visit Rossendale for the first time are always pleasantly surprised by the hills and variety of walks the area has to offer.
This year the Rural Rossendale Walking Festival features a host of aptly named ‘foodie’ walks, in celebration of the Taste Lancashire ‘08 Year of Food and Drink.
The interesting programme of walks takes place on the first weekend in October to coincide with
Rossendale Farmers market. So if you want to sample some local produce and take in the best of
the Rossendale countryside you can book your place now by contacting Wendy Davison on:
07746 556337 or email: wendy.davison@btopenworld.com
For a real Lancashire experience you can make the most of the weekend walks by booking in to any one of the places to stay on www.ruralrossendale.co.uk. High standards and stunning views abound and a warm welcome awaits you whatever the weather.
