About this Event

A walk around the city centre looking up at selected blue plaques commemorating some of Leicester's noteworthy people, buildings or significant events. This walk is led by one of our Walk Volunteers, pausing to provide a little information along the way. This walk is just over 2 miles, led at a steady pace. This walk is free to attend but places must be booked.


New Walkers

If you have not walked with Leicester City Council before we will ask you to complete our Walker Registration form in advance of the walk online or by phone. You will receive an email with a link to the online form in the days leading up to the event. You only need to do this once and can attend any of our walks thereafter (subject to booking a place on Eventbrite).

Dress for the weather

Remember to dress appropriately for the weather. Our group walks will go ahead in most weather. We recommend the following:

• Comfortable sturdy footwear

• Bring a raincoat or umbrella in case of rain

• On cooler days wear appropriate layers and a coat/jacket

• On hot days we recommend a hat and sunscreen

• Please bring a bottle of water with you.

Group size

We ask walkers to book in advance so we can keep our group sizes manageable.

Self-guided routes

If you have been unable to book onto one of our group walks, or you prefer to explore with your family or friends, self-guided routes are available to download from the routes page of our Choose How You Move website or via the Go Jauntly smartphone app. For other ideas, do check out our Walk Inspiration page which features walk videos and quiz trails. Enjoy exploring Leicester on foot.
