Take on the Great York Walk in 2026!

Event details

Our annual Great York Walk brings our University community together to champion better mental health.

Taking part in the Great York Walk on Saturday 16 May is a wonderful way to stay connected and support the important work of the Mentally Fit York Fund. You'll help us continue our mission to improve mental wellbeing, champion resilience and spark innovative approaches to mental health. 

Choose your route: the full 20 mile (32km) adventure around York, or one of the shorter alternatives, around 12.5 miles (20km) or 6.25 miles (10km). Whether you’re aiming high or taking a steady pace, there’s an option for every walker.

With our early-bird offer now live, if you sign up before the end of January you can join us for just £5 - making a saving of £20. Be part of a community coming together for better mental health!
