Description

In 2007 Hay was selected by Timbuktu in Mali, West Africa, to be its UK twin town. This trail, officially launched during the 2013 Hay Walking Festival, takes in eleven sites throughout the town which have all been chosen to highlight the similarities and differences between Hay and Timbuktu. We will talk about the links, mostly cultural and health, which have been forged between two communities and visit Hay Makers gallery, which sells jewellery crafted by artisans in Timbuktu.
