We are the Coventry Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
A figure of eight walk from Leamington Hastings, Warwickshire heading across country to the Grand Union Canal then along the towpath to Napton Junction and briefly along the Oxford Canal towpath before returning past Napton Reservoirs and across country to Broadwell, Hill and Leamington Hastings.
Please note the crossover point in this figure of eight is not at the start point therefore it is not practical for some to end the walk after the first loop.
Generally flat terrain but rather muddy in places, fair mix of stiles and kissing gates, care required along Oxford Canal Towpath for approximately 0.25 miles owing to poor condition also when crossing Grand Union Canal across lock gates – handrails are provided!
To contact the walk leader or ask a question about this walk, please use the "Get in touch about this walk" email link in the walk details.
• Wear suitable clothing and footwear for the conditions – if in doubt, ask the walk leader.
• Bring food and water, depending on the length of the walk.
• If you feel unwell, or need to slow down or stop, let the walk leader or back marker know
Meet at All Saints Church, Leamington Hastings. Parking adjacent to the churchyard wall is acceptable for, say, half a dozen cars, churchgoers do have a dedicated car park nearby. If in doubt please park responsibly some distance away.
