Overview

Tracks are good being on old railways, canal towpaths and made tracks. There is only 1 mile of field paths so if the weather is rotten there will not be too much mud.  The terrain is easy.  There are 2 stiles and some steps.

There are toilets at Anglers and also at the cafe (with a purchase) where we stop for lunch in Newmillerdam.  

Hot drinks are available at Anglers cafe at the end of the walk.
