Overview

Paul is leading a moderate 4.5 mile circular walk.

Starting from the Straits post office in Gornal Wood, we will walk through the estate before joining the path which leads through Cotwall end nature reserve. hopefully the wild garlic and bluebells will still be out. we will walk up the hill before coming back down through the golf course. Parking will be in side streets off Straits road. The walk will be quite hilly so a decent level of fitness is required.
