Fife’s first Walking Festival has been hailed as a huge success.
The event, organised by the Craigencalt Rural Community Trust, took place over nine days.
Experienced leaders took teams on walks catering to people with a wide range of interests, such as heritage, the environment, bird watching, traditional hiking and Nordic walking.
Marilyn Edwards, the organiser for Craigencalt Rural Community Trust, said: “We were delighted with how many folk registered for walks and everyone said it was lovely to meet new people and experience something different from more usual walks.”
Some 16 walks were hosted for people of all ages and abilities.
Short historic-interest walks were held, as well as 10-mile hikes taking in spectacular views of the kingdom from Binn Hill and along the coast.
Another walk took in Glassmount House gardens, while attendees enjoyed a taste of Nordic walking, a fast-paced, whole-body activity.
Instructor Judith Frame took a group around Black Rock at Pettycur Bay.
Popular walks included the heritage walks around Kinghorn and Burntisland, as well as a tour of Auchtertool Kirkyard that included a history of the church and graveyard.
More than 130 people took part in festival walks.
Marilyn added: “It just shows that a local-based walking festival, free to all, is attractive and enjoyable to many people. By the end of the week, folk were talking about repeating the experience next year.”
