Overview

We will circle Vicar Water Country Park before heading to Spa Ponds and then down to the RIver Maun. We will return along the river and through Newland Woods before crossing Clipstone Village back to our start point. Coffee and lunch stops The area has a sandy subsoil so the pathways will be mainly dry underfoot. There are no stiles. There is a cafe with toilets at the country park.
