OPENING CEREMONY
I recently had the great pleasure of taking part in your walking festival and, in fact, joined in several of the walks. The festival was brilliantly organised, even the weather! Members were very friendly and welcoming. I am a member of the East Cheshire Ramblers, so I appreciate the effort that has been invested in this festival.

SANDWICH BAY BIRD
A very informative walk around the reserve, most enjoyable with thanks to the white cliff ramblers and Sandwich bay bird observatory

FISH AND CHIPS WAL
This was our 4th time doing this walk. Graham was a great lead again, and there was a nice bunch of people to walk with. As ever, stunning views throughout. Fish and chips were excellent too! Thanks to all involved in running the festival.

Good afternoon very disappointed to have been turned away from the walk on in sandwich today the 1.30pm one from the guildhall. I was told I needed to have booked onto the walk. It never said anything about that on the website.

THE RUSSELL GARDEN
Lovely walk from Russell Gardens, exploring a part I’d never been to before. The long climb on a hot day was worthwhile for the views. I loved the woodland walk on the way back. Will do this walk again in different seasons. Thank so much for organising it.

Thanks to Kerry for a great walk which managed to find shaded paths for a lot of the way. Lunch at the Ice Cream parlour in Ripple was a very good choice- the ice creams were very much appreciated!

First walking festival and was very impressed by how well it was organised. Liked the badges,stickers and spare bottles of water which were available. Les and Gavin were great leaders and gave just the right amount of information. The group were lovely people and I had lots of fun and laughter whilst walking and amazing views. Wi

THE WHITE CLIFFS P
I did all 3 parts of the white cliffs walk and received my certificate yay!! The walks were well organised by Les and Gavin. Both leaders were knowledgeable and took care of us, making sure we drank enough water etc. There were brilliant panoramic views and plenty of opportunities for taking photos.
