The new Walk Peterborough website provides an even easier way to enjoy walking in your local area. The website is designed specifically to record different routes around the city and surrounding areas. In addition, through mobile optimisation and GPS data, you can now conveniently map and follow your route on the go.

Whether you’re looking to explore the city’s cultural and heritage sites, enjoy family-friendly days out, improve your health and well-being, want to find dog-friendly walks or simply looking to enjoy the natural environment – there’s something for everyone! You can also choose a walking distance to suit your requirements.

The charity Peterborough Environment City Trust (PECT) has produced the new website, with funding from Travelchoice. Travelchoice aims to encourage the use of sustainable travel, reduce the need to travel by car, and improve the quality of life for all residents while reducing the city’s impact on climate change.

“Walk Peterborough is a fantastic resource for exploring the beauty of the city on foot with friends, family and colleagues,” explains Esther Baffa-Isaacs, Sustainable Travel Officer at Travelchoice. “It can be used to plot your commute to work, college or university and set up walking buses to schools. The value of the social aspects of the site is endless because it makes it possible for people to share their latest walking adventure and give inspiration to others.”

Not only can you see a range of suggested walks to do around Peterborough, you can even add in your own route ideas to help others like you discover more of Peterborough. For more information, please email [email protected] and visit the website at www.walkpeterborough.co.uk to find out more.
