As we enter 2025 and the temperature drops, the temptation to stay inside may never be greater. However, there are amazing wintery walks all across the UK that end at the pub. Experts at the outdoor clothing and equipment store, Millets, have compiled their top ‘pub walks’ in England to complete this winter. Looking at walks that are accessible, family-friendly, and have a pub on the route, the team have ranked the top walks by their ratings and number of reviews.
Natalie Byrne, author and outdoor enthusiast at Millets said: “As we are firmly in the winter season, many will be wanting to stay warm and cosy indoors. However, a walk is a great way to get all the family together and moving! To allow the whole family to get involved, it is a great idea to choose a route that is accessible to both wheelchairs and prams.
"It is also recommended that you check the difficulty of your walking route as well as the estimated time that it will take for the whole family to walk it. Of course, if you have any younger children or any slower walkers, allow for extra time to stop on your walk.
“Packing the correct equipment can make all the difference between a good walk and a difficult walk. I recommend a sturdy pair of walking boots that will support your ankles and be comfortable on longer walks. It is also a good idea to pack some waterproof clothing for the family.
