Sign up for the latest World Heritage Walk for Nightingale House Hospice

Nightingale House Hospice is hosting its latest World Heritage Walk on Sunday May 8 In aid of its funds.

It's a 13-mile trek 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 those taking part 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 the hospice, this is also an opportunity to walk through some of the region’s most picturesque countryside, an area awarded the status of World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

* People taking part in a previous World Heritage Walk.

There is no registration fee but the hospice encourages you to raise as much sponsorship as you  can.

Children are welcome with an appropriate adult. However, all participants must be able to walk the full 13 miles. Each person taking part in the walk must register (including children). Dogs are also welcome but must be kept on leads and are the responsibility of the owner.

You will start your journey by meeting the Nightingale House team at the Lion Quays in Oswestry where free parking will be provided. A free shuttle bus provided by Pats Coaches will transport you to the Chainbridge Hotel in Llangollen where your walking adventure will begin. 

The walk will last approximately four or five hours and organisers say you can take as long as you wish to complete it although the Nightingale House team will leave the Lion Quays at 4pm.
