Overview

Salford Museum and Art Gallery to Kersal Wetlands and back. The walk goes through Peel Park then along River Irwell to The Kersal Wetlands where there are lakes, birds and some early wild flowers.  There are short hills around the Wetlands but the rest of the walk is flat.  There are some narrow gates. We then retrace some of our steps back to Salford Museum and Art Gallery.
