Overview

An easy, mostly flat walk of around 5 miles. Starting from the War Memorial in Alrewas, we walk along a section of the Trent & Mersey Canal, leaving the canal at Wychnor to walk along the lane to Wychnor Park where we join the Millennium Way. We descend to the flood plain, continue along the canal to Bagnall Lock, then walk to Daisy Lane before crossing fields back to the village. Refreshments available after the walk at a choice of locations.
