Walks Around Britain is a website for walkers in Great Britain, established in 2009. It caters for established walkers and for people who want to take up leisure walking for the first time. Rather uniquely for a walking brand, it focuses on walks between 2 – 8 miles, and is welcoming to families and dog-owners too. Walks Around Britain is positioned below its' print-based rival Country Walking magazine, and often features walks in places of Britain other publications and TV series rarely show.

The website also features walks on the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands, even though they aren't part of Britain, but are Crown Dependencies. Walks in Northern Ireland feature in the sister site Walks Around Ireland despite being part of the United Kingdom. It is owned by Nova Productions, the Doncaster-based independent media producer.
