Overview

Join me for a leisurely stroll through wide open fields and farm land. We'll stop for lunch at Hatton Locks Cafe before the final scenic canal walk.

You can either bring your own lunch and sit at the picnic tables or buy delicious hot and cold snacks from the cafe. There are toilets at the start point (Warwick Parkway Station) and also at the cafe. 

Note the finish time includes a leisurely lunch break at Hatton Locks Cafe and there is also a pub option if people prefer that.

Strangely what3words for the start point is "live sulk wonderfully". On my walk you can expect to live wonderfully minus the sulking!
