Jersey walking festival gives chance to explore island on foot

There are 30 guided walks on offer and they are all free

People are being encouraged to explore Jersey on foot during a four-day festival.

The National Trust for Jersey's Walking Through Spring Festival offers 30 guided walks spanning trust sites across the island.

It begins on Wednesday with a sunrise walk at St Catherine's and ends on Sunday with a walk in the St Ouen's Bay area at sunset.

The walks are free as the festival is sponsored by a government grant.

The walking festival offers nature trails, forest therapy, foraging and historical walks

Donna Le Marrec, from the trust, said: "We're very fortunate to have many wonderful sites in our care and what better way to enjoy them, but on a walking festival?"

A programme of events is available on the trust's website.
