Overview

An exploration of the historic waterway as well as unusual views of the cathedral from the base of the Lincoln escarpment - AND the walk is (largely) mud-free!

The walk starts from the free car park in the attractive modern marina of Burton Waters. Although the walk is completely flat it is not a short walk and a degree of "walk-fitness" is needed.

Cafe and pub refreshments are available in Burton Waters but do  still bring some with you as there will be the usual  breaks en route.

Please register for this walk on Newark Ramblers website where you will also find details of our car share scheme.
