Join us for 16th annual Pendle Pub Walk, kindly sponsored by Alderson and Horan Funeral Services, around the stunning Pendle countryside using its finest hostelries as way-points.
The walk is organised by Pendleside Hospice and Burnley Pendleside Rotary Club to raise money for Pendleside, with £6 of each registration fee going to other local charities who are supported by the Rotary Club.
This year it is expected that over 2,000 walkers will take part in the 13-mile walk (approx), which is made up of a combination of countryside and road-walking. The walk is a circular route through some of Pendle’s most scenic countryside. Along the route there will be a number of official venues for you to have a rest, purchase refreshments and enjoy live entertainment.
