Local Activities - Walking / Trekking
Walking is a popular past-time in Langholm due to the unrivalled beauty of the rolling border hills which surround the town. In an effort to increase awareness and pleasure in this activity, the Langholm Walks Group was set up in 2000 and has presently way-marked 12 walks in and around Langholm, ranging from 2.5 to 10 miles in length, with routes to suit all levels of fitness.
During late-spring, summer and autumn seasons, the group organises various events open to the public. These events include a popular annual walking festival, which provides guided walks and evening entertainment.
Further details of the walks and the festival are available from the Langholm Walks Project website, or from leaflets available in the hotel reception.
