Overview

It is nearly the festive season, so what better than a good old Christmas mystery. This mystery is a walk where you are never quite sure where you are going. All you know is that we will be in the West Bridgford area but the route is never revealed in advance. It will involve some road walking but also some paths. On the way, the leader will have some clues for you to solve to reveal the next part of the route. At some points on the walk there will be some treats. 
We should be back to the start point before 1:30 pm but if you use a local pay for car park in West Bridgford, please get plenty of parking time just in case we are later.
