Sunday 27th September 2026 will mark the return the Five Valleys Walk, and this year we've created a brand new accessible route
For those looking for an accessible route, you can now do the Five Valleys 5k, a brand-new addition to our signature fundraising walk.
The 5k will be a separate route from the main 21-mile challenge and will take you along the beautiful canal path to Stonehouse, and then back to the Stroud Cricket Club.
The accessible route will be available to participants of the Five Valleys Walk who use wheelchairs, mobility scooters, and prams.
All ages and abilities
With routes and activities for all ages and abilities, it really is the perfect family day out for all.
Here are some walkers' reflections from last year -
‘The event is well organised and a great day out. Well done.’
‘I thoroughly enjoyed the whole day. It felt an adventure and real achievement. I am over the moon at completing the course on the first attempt and for a good cause.’
‘Thank you so much for excellent organisation of the event for the charity which does such a great job saving lives and helping people!’
Although the full 21-mile route is a real challenge, you can choose your distance and cover anything from 1.5 miles to the full course.
More inclusive
Senior Fundraising Officer, Claire Ellis, said: “We are delighted to introduce a new 5K accessible route, making the Five Valleys Walk more inclusive, creating an opportunity for families, friends and supporters of all abilities to enjoy the day together.”
