CANOPY WALKS.
Guided woodland walks, with a difference…

‘There was some of sort of enchantment..I found the experience profoundly moving, a window back into the innocent wonders of childhood, a forest-filled bucket of tingling surprises’ -
UK Festival Guide (Canopy Walks at Wealden Festival 2026).

An Introduction to…

CANOPY WALKS take place in different woodland locations and are always led by an expert in natural habitats. What makes these events so much more than a simple woodland walk is that as well as exploring ecology, they also weave (surprize) live acoustic music, poetry, dance, sound installations and visual art through the trees…

Every walk is unique as it is shaped by each location, as well as the people who take part. A few performers are nationally known but most are brilliant creatives drawn from the local county. Our walks are gentle, designed to be fun but also a little bit thought-provoking, to inspire, to encourage connection and a lasting love of woodlands.

Each CANOPY walk lasts about 90 mins (with stops) and cover about 2 miles. They run from spring to early autumn and are organised by a friendly and experienced team. We also have a ‘tiny shop’ which sells nature-related work by local artists.

CANOPY walks will suit most people, over the age of 12+ and who can navigate slightly uneven natural terrain (and in a variety of weathers!)
