Overview

From Greenway Bank Country Park we will head out around Knypersley Reservoir following the Moorlands Way Walk to Norton Green. We will then pick up the canal at Heakley Hall Farm to Stockton Brook, where we will pause for lunch. We then pass through Tinster Wood to Stockton Brook, over to Hill Top where we will pause for refuelling at The Top Pub. After a breif pause we again pick up the Moorlands Way over Marshes Hill and back to Knypersley via Gawtons Well. Given the time of year it may be muddy in places. Lunch Required.

Ever fancied leading a walk? Well now's your chance 🥾🥾. We'll be bringing a couple of maps along for you to practice your navigation skills. The walk will be broken down into 1 mile sections for people to take it in turns leading, no pressure, do as much or little as you want. If you'd like a go, just drop me a message before the day or let me know during the walk.
