Winding Walk - A town and nature appreciation walk hosted by Barnton Bunker, Scotland's largest nuclear bunker!
Winding Walk takes you through the beautiful forests of Corstorphine Hill and West Edinburgh, on a poetic journey you and your family can enjoy together at your own pace! It's not a race, but you can run if you so choose!
Get your stamp card at check-in and collect stamps at each of the 5 checkpoints along the way! At each stop, there will be live poetry readings on the subjects of nature and wildlife- from the beloved collections of Robert Frost, Emily Dickenson, and others!
Walkers should expect the 6.5 mile (10.4 km) route to take around 2.5 hours to complete, and the 8 mile (12.8 km) route to take around 3 hours to complete.
The event will end at 6pm.
All proceeds will benefit our charity organization, restoration efforts, and endeavors to transform the bunker into a haven for the Arts; Music, Theater, Immersive Experiences, Nature and History Education, and inspiring Cultural Events for all of Edinburgh to enjoy!
