Walks to suit everyone! Various walks with multiple start points across Fife available over the week.
All our walks are led and free.
This May, we’re encouraging everyone to get more active by walking or wheeling throughout the month. Whether it’s a stroll around your local community or exploring one of the 31 scenic walks we’ve suggested, there are plenty of ways to take part.
Set yourself a personal walking goal and challenge yourself to walk every day in May. Whether you’re walking or wheeling, keep track of your steps or miles throughout the month.
At the end of May, we’ll get in touch to ask for your feedback and find out how far you’ve gone – we’d love to hear about your experience!
The Walking Challenge Map features 31 footsteps, one for each day of May, to help track your progress feel free to colour these in. There’s also a list of suggested walking spots across Fife, but you don’t need to visit these to complete the challenge. You can simply walk or wheel in your own local area – the key is to get moving every day and track your distance.
Whether you live, work, volunteer or study in Fife, you’re welcome to take part.
The goal is simple: we want as many people in Fife as possible to walk or wheel throughout May. Regular physical activity has so many benefits, improving your physical, mental and social wellbeing. And those who stay active tend to live longer, healthier, and happier lives.
Once you’ve submitted your feedback at the end of the challenge, we’ll send a certificate to all participants who complete the form.
Bums off Seats is a Fife Walking Initiative. We provide free local health walking opportunities in Fife and all walks are led by a trained team of Volunteer Walk Leaders. A health walk is a free, short, local walk and is suitable for most people, even if you have a long term health condition.
This is a Fife Council funded project with support from Active Fife and Paths for All.
If you have any other queries please contact the project team.
