This is the annual Great Global Greyhound Walk
Walks are for sighthounds only, and generally held once a month starting at 11:00 hours. Please be aware that some attending can be nervous and not used to meeting other breeds of dogs. If you have a nervous dog please ensure it’s muzzled, and please keep all dogs on the lead at all times. Dog waste to be bagged and responsibly disposed of. There are many people behind the scenes making these walks a success - it’s a massive team effort, so come and join us - everyone welcome.

The walk will take place in the deer park, just outside the formal gardens. We’ll follow a fully accessible track on a gentle 1-mile route, taking in the beautiful grounds of the estate along the way.
The car park is free, and £1 a hound collection is at the start of the walk with all proceeds going to Retired Greyhounds South Lakes. On this occasion we won’t be serving refreshments with there being a cafe on site.
