Overview

An easy walk of around 6 miles through pleasant Warwickshire countryside with good views. Starting from the Plough Inn, Shustoke, we skirt the Shustoke Reservoirs following the Centenary Way. We walk along lanes and field paths to Nether Whitacre, then rejoin the Centenary Way towards Whitacre Heath, walking alongside the railway before crossing it. The return to the start is across field paths.

There are 4 stiles and some plank bridges.
