Hello Everyone
We return to Kingsbury a few miles south of Tamworth this Sunday for a leisurely walk encompassing no less than three water parks for which the area is well known. Field footpaths, woodland, a short canal section, and approximately 0.75 mile of quiet road walking complete the circuit. Pretty much flat throughout with just one stile.
Why not join us for a day out in good company? You're very welcome to do so. If this is your first walk with Chase & District group it'd be great if you could let us know please. Thanks.👍
Registration: 09.45. Walk start: 10.00. Walk Leader: Dave (07456 598722)
⚠️Please note there are no facilities at the start but loo's are available late into the walk at around 7.5 miles.
⚠️Our own members should note there's no rendezvous at Hednesford for this walk. Please go direct to the start.
Post walk refreshments venue to be decided on the day. Nothing unusual about that.😂😂
See you all there!
