Story

Thanks for taking the time to read about our Cross Bay Walk to raise funds for The Birchall Trust.

About our challenge:

To fundraise for The Birchall Trust, we are taking part in a Cross Bay Walk! The Birchall Trust are a local charity that support people affected by rape and sexual abuse.

Taking part in a Cross Bay Walk is an exceptional way to enjoy the stunning beauty of Morecambe Bay. Crossing the sands with an experienced and knowledgeable guide is the only way to traverse the ever-changing flats and channels, and this amazing experience is a must for visitors to the area.

People have been crossing the sands with a royally-appointed guide since the 1500s, so come and enjoy this historic walk and immerse yourself in Morecambe Bay's unique scenery and wildlife.

ARNSIDE TO GRANGE WALK

A historic bay walk across the bay from Arnside to Grange. Although the walk dates back to the era of Henry VIII and the original route was from Hest Bank to Kents Bank, due to the soft sand at Hest Bank therefore the route is now Arnside to Grange. Today the walk from Arnside is a lovely walk with a varied terrain and is between 5.5 to 9 miles depending on the safest route.

📅 Date: Saturday 2oth June 2026

⏰ Start Time: 10 AM

🚶‍♂️ Length: between 4-6 miles depending on the route

📍 Start Location: Arnside Village

🏁 End Location: Grange over Sands

We are really excited to fundraise, train for, and complete this event. We appreciate any and all donations.
