10:00 am - 06:00 pm

Moreton, Oswestry, SY11 3EN

A 13 mile sponsored walk along the canal paths of the Dee Valley.

The World Heritage Walk is a distinctive 13 mile* walk through beautiful scenery along the legendary towpaths and footpaths of Llangollen and Oswestry, an area steeped in local heritage.

Walking with fellow Nightingale House supporters, breath-taking scenery will greet you at every twist and turn, including the iconic Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, Chirk Aqueduct, Trevor Basin and the Chirk Tunnel.

As well as raising much-needed funds for your local hospice, this is also a great opportunity to walk through some of the region’s most picturesque countryside, an area awarded the status of World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

There is no registration fee to complete the World Heritage Walk but we encourage you to raise as much sponsorship as you possibly can. Children are welcome with an appropriate adult. However, all participants must be able to walk the full 13 miles.
