This walk starts at the 700-year-old ancient woodland, Linford Wood. Enjoy nature as we follow an ancient hedge and look out for wood carved sculptures, plants and wildlife.

From there, we will head over to explore the 1981 Homeworld Exhibition - a series of novel house designs created by architects from around the world. These houses are now private dwellings, but can be viewed from the public footpath without upsetting the current owners.

The 5.7km walk starts at Linford Wood car park and will take approximately 2 hours to complete. This walk is on mostly paved footpaths and redways, but partly unpaved bridleways in the wood. The route is step-free, but can be very muddy in wet weather. Please wear sturdy footwear and dress for the weather.

Enjoy an immersive story telling event with the Red Pheonix as part of this year's Walking Festival.

In, The Canterbury Tales, Chaucer recounts a storytelling competition, which is filled with sex, drinking and retribution, by a set of fictious characters on a pilgrimage to Canterbury Cathedral. At this evening event, people will make their own pilgrimage around the Tree Cathedral in Milton Keynes stopping around the site to hear the stories, including, among others: the Wife of Bath’s tale about a salacious Knight of Arthur’s round table, the Paradoners’s tale of foolish fellows trying to outwit death, and of course the crude but hilarious Miller’s tale of adultery, backsides and comeuppance.
