Overview

This is a one-way walk along the Chesterfield Canal, taking the train from Kiveton Park to Worksop and walking back - uphill as there's lots of locks!  Coffee and lunch breaks.

The train is scheduled for 9:59am so it is essential that you arrive in time.  Free parking in the layby on the north side of the road approx 10 minutes walk west of the station. What3Words digit.props.escalated. 

There is chargeable parking at the station but it can be full.

The towpath is mostly fairly good.
