Birkby walking guides
Regularly taking part in an activity like walking is so good for you. It can burn calories, lower your blood sugar, ease joint pains, boost your immune system and it also gets you outside and into nature which can give your mental health and wellbeing a boost too!

You can walk pretty much anywhere that has a path, but to help you get started, here are a few of our favourite walks along the Grimescar Valley and around Birkby:
