Hundreds of walkers turned out to enjoy a week of fun and exercise in Warwickshire's beautiful countryside and historic towns!
A great range of walks were on offer thanks to the local walking groups, tour guides and experts that contributed walks to the Festival programme.
Despite a wet start to the week walkers made the most of this chance to get out and about and discover some of the County's most popular spots and hidden gems. Many also enjoyed learning more about Warwickshire's rich history, landscape and wildlife.
The following are just some of the great walks that featured in the Festival...
