This page contains a list of Permanent Trails, Series Events, Main Events, National Trails, Long/Medium Distance Walks which have a Royal Connection on the route or pass along/over a River. These walks are therefore eligible for inclusion in your Special Programme Record Book.
This page has been created 26th November 2024 and is very much a work in progress. Clubs /Walk Organisers are being contacted to advise the BWF if their routes pass along or over a River or have a Royal Connection. The author has populated the table where they are aware of an eligibility.
The list will be updated as new information becomes available. This list is offered as a place to start your walking adventure in discovering the various rivers we have in the UK. If you come upon an event that is not on the list, use it and then let us know so we can add it to the list. projects@bwf-ivv.org.uk Individual walkers are requested NOT to email in until after 1st January 2025, to allow time for the clubs to reply.
It is not intended that this page will specify the actual river or royal connection – especially in relation to the royal connection, we hope that finding the connection will be fun on your walk. We will encourage walk organisers to mention where there is a connection in their route description .
