More than 50 people took part in the ancient tradition of Beating the Bounds.
The event, held in St Albans, was led by the Mayor of St Albans City and District, Councillor Teresa Heritage, who walked the historic boundaries of the city in a ceremony dating back to 1327.
Cllr Heritage said: "We had a lovely afternoon amid bracing walking weather, taking in the City’s many fabulous attractions."
The 4.5-mile walk began at the puddingstone in St Michael’s Village, where willow wands were used to beat the ground.
The tradition was designed to pass down knowledge of the city’s boundaries and assert citizens’ rights.
Cllr Heritage was joined by Deputy Mayor Sue Griffiths, Town Crier Stephen Potter, and the Rev Tim Vickers.
