Health Walks are short, local group walks that are free to attend and suit all walking paces and abilities. Trained walk leaders lead them on risk-assessed routes. They are run by more than 300 local providers in the Scottish Health Walk Network, which Walking Scotland (formerly Paths for All) supports.

To join, search the Health Walk map on the Walking Scotland website for your area. Each listing gives the organiser’s name and contact details. Get in touch with the organiser before your first walk to check the meeting point and how accessible the route is.

Walking Scotland does not run the walks itself, so times and routes are set by each local provider.
