Silly walking popular again thanks to the National Trust One walking campaign

Silly walks are all the craze thanks to a new 1 mile walking campaign launched this week by the National Trust South West. The ‘National Trust Silly Walking’ initiative forms part of ‘National Trust One’ – a new set of 101 downloadable, regional mile-long walks. The National Trust’s national Walking Festival runs until October 30th. Silly walkers are being encouraged to film themselves and their families silly walking over the course of half term and upload to www.ntsouthwest.co.uk/sillywalks. Pictured are over a hundred silly walkers in a flash mob walk at Studland beach, Dorset which was the original setting for some of the opening scenes of The Monty Python sketches.
