Welcome to the 16th Richmond Walking & Book Festival

Saturday Sept 19th & Sunday Sept 27th 2020

Our festival will provide an opportunity for a fantastic break; combining daytime walks led by knowledgeable guides, with evening talks from popular and emerging authors. You create your own programme; do as little or as much as you choose, of either or both.  The Festival is centred in the lively and picturesque market town of Richmond which boasts everything you need to ensure a wonderful day or longer stay, whether a solo traveller or with a group of friends.

Our Walks Programme features walks of varying lengths that take you out into some of the most stunning scenery England has to offer, in the Yorkshire Dales and other less-well visited areas within easy reach of Richmond.  We also offer shorter town-based walks of local interest and a programme of Health Walks. With at least 3 walks per day to choose from you will be spoilt for choice.

Our Author Programme has several authors booked already and several events will be hosted by Festival President, and author of the DCI Banks series, Peter Robinson. 

So, we hope there is something for everyone and we look forward to seeing you here!
