Overview

We set off across Thorpe Meadows towards the rowing lake, follow the river past the Yacht Club and boats towards the edge of Nene Park returning on the other side of the river via Orton Mere. There are small amounts of mud if wet but otherwise good paths. Optional refreshments at the Boathouse afterwards.
