We are the Retford Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
From Wetlands Lakes we walk towards Sutton Grange and turn to enter Idle Valley nature reserve. We head north to Chainbridge and then to Neatholme Rd, taking in the lovely views of the water areas from the bird hides along the way. After coffee we cross the river and walk the east track south to Chainbridge, then cross back into the reserve to take the river path on the west of the river. As we approach Tiln we will have lunch, then continue our ramble back to the cars.
Some of the paths are muddy so please make sure you have suitable footwear.
You will also need a packed lunch.
