Overview

 

A walk mainly on tarmac paths.

From Queniborough we will  walk into Syston along the main Melton Road.

From Syston we will walk through the main park and then through Donkey Park to the Fosse Way, along Meadow Lane to pick up the canal.

We will follow the canal all the way into Leicester passing through Watermead Park and Abbey Park where we may be able to buy coffee.

Once in Leicester we will head for the Blue Boar for a famous cheese and onion cob.
