We are the Coventry Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
[Update 11 July: this walk is now confirmed]
Join us for a walk on the shady side ! This walk is designed with hot sunny weather in mind - starting at 9.30 am, it’s mainly within Bubbenhall, Wappenbury and Ryton woods and their connecting woodland corridors, with dappled shade for a good part of the walk. There are no stiles. All the woods are nature reserves and there are some attractive pools too.
The 5.5 mile walk - this excludes Ryton Wood. The last mile will need to be self-guided but it’s easy to navigate as it follows our outward route exactly, and the walk leader can provide a route map if needed.
Despite the trees it will be a hot day and we’re likely to get some strong sun in places - come well prepared, with lots of water, a hat and sun protection. The estimated finish time is for the 8.5 mile walk and includes a designated lunch stop (bring your own).
The Three Horseshoes pub is a short stroll from our meeting place.
If you have any queries about this walk please contact the walk leader by using the "Get in touch about this walk" email link.
Please wear suitable clothing and footwear for the conditions – if in doubt, ask the walk leader. Bring ample food and water for the length of the walk.
If you feel unwell, or need to slow down or stop, let the walk leader or back marker know.
Park in the large lay-by off the A445 Leamington Road, opposite the junctions with Pit Hill and Spring Hill, or considerately on nearby streets. Meet opposite Kids Planet nursery (shown as School on the OS map).
