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 church of St Mary and All Saints 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 but there are no refreshment or toilet facilities available. There is a cafe at Brixworth Country Park and pubs and cafes in nearby Brixworth and Moulton for those of you wanting to have a drink or a meal after the walk.
