Crickhowell Walking Festival 2026

Posted: 1st December 2025

Each March, the Crickhowell Walking Festival brings walkers of all abilities to Crickhowell to explore the beautiful Bannau Brycheiniog and Black Mountains.

With more than 80 guided routes on offer, including new additions, family-friendly options, night walks and the popular TM5 Challenge, it has become a much-loved fixture in the local calendar.  Booking has just opened and the full programme can be viewed at https://www.crickhowellfestival.com/

Alongside the walks, the Festival features a programme of evening events and this year, the Clarence Hall is delighted to host one of them.

On Saturday, 7 March, mountaineer and photographer Tim Kington will present Everest: It’s a Long Way Back Down, sharing an engaging and down-to-earth insight into what it’s really like to climb the world’s highest mountain.

We look forward to welcoming Festival visitors to the Hall and hope you enjoy all that this year’s programme has to offer!
