Overview

This is a lovely walk along the river Arle, local tracks and lanes and along the watercress beds, including a small section of the Wayfairer’s Walk.

Optional lunch afterwards in the Long Barn Café. We can't book a table, so let's grab a table when we get there.  There is also a large farm shop selling plants, produce and gifts. Well worth a good browse for ideas for Christmas.

Could be mud and flood, so please wear appropriate gear and poles maybe useful.

Bring drinks and snacks for mid-morning stop.
