Overview

The walk stays close to the River Don but climbs to the top of the viaduct via a good path. The walk enters the Sprotbrough Flash Nature Reserve. Towards the end of the walk we pass behind the Boat Inn where there are steps to return to the start. The Tipsy Tearoom is a short walk from the finish.
