On the last weekend in June people gathered on the hills for the Quantock Hills Walking Festival. Over forty people from Somerset and further afield took advantage of the fantastic weather to explore the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, led by expert guides from The Quantocks Volunteer Ranger Service, Friends of Quantock and Friends of Coleridge. The event was organised by Stowey Walking, the Walkers are Welcome group for Nether Stowey and Over Stowey. Lynne Abbott from Stowey Walking said she was so pleased the event was a success and wants to thank all those people who supported the walking festival. If you missed the event or would like to explore the Quantocks further on your own Stowey Walking have a variety of local walks available free to download on their website: www.stoweywalking.co.uk
