Walking isn’t only good for our physical, social and mental health. It’s also good for our communities, the environment and the economy.
We support and inspire people in Scotland to walk and wheel more.
Walk. Connect. Change your world.
The top destination for walking tips, tools and inspiration.
Every May, we celebrate National Walking Month with 31 days dedicated to the power of walking.
Throughout National Walking Month, we raise awareness about the incredible benefits of walking. A daily walk helps you connect with nature, reduce stress, and boost your physical, social and mental wellbeing.
Each year, we provide daily inspiration with walking calendars packed with tips, ideas, and challenges. From gentle 10-minute strolls to sunset walks and wildlife spotting, each day offers a new experience.
Beyond individual action, we are calling for councils and government to help make walking and wheeling easier for everyone. We need them to invest in walkable neighbourhoods, projects and policies that put people first.
Each May, we share information about all the ways you can get involved. From joining a local Health Walk with friendly faces or doing a team Step Count Challenge with colleagues and friends.

We updated our brand and name in June 2025 to Walking Scotland. We’re still working to update everything with our new branding. This means you might spot our previous, Paths for All, branding in places, and some links in downloads might not work as they should.
If you have any problems, let us know and we’ll help as best we can. You can also sign up to our newsletter to be the first to know when we publish updates and launch our campaigns.
Mark your calendar for next May, there’s lots happening and you can be part of it. Sign up to our newsletter to be one of the first to know our plans.
