Welcome to the
St Albans and District Footpaths Society

We hope you will join us and take part in our weekly walks.

We are a group of local people who all love walking and are passionate about enjoying, protecting and enhancing the footpaths in or around St Albans.

We have existed since 1967 and know the area well. The books of our favourite walking routes – widely available – are local bestsellers.

More people than ever before are walking. Walking is good for your health and well-being. Make 2023 the year you join us and walk the lovely countryside near to your home.

When you walk with us, you see more of this beautiful area and enjoy some of the nation’s best kept and signed footpaths. Friendly walk leaders will make you welcome and keep you on the right path!

There is always a very warm welcome from the group. We believe the countryside is for everyone to enjoy and practise the Country Code advice: ‘be nice, say hello, share the space’.
