Overview

A delightful circular walk beginning in the lovely village of Holcot. We shall be walking along village lanes, field paths and back along the reservoir track. We'll be meeting outside the village hall in the centre of the village. From there we shall be walking towards Pitsford reservoir and then back to the village. There is plenty of on-road parking in the area. We shall be taking a short break during the walk at Brixworth Country Park where there is a cafe and toilet facilities.
