Overview

A 9 mile walk in the Vale of Belvoir taking in the 3 pretty villages of Plungar, Barkestone, and Redmile.

The walk will start at the main Belvoir Castle car park NG32 1PE (though we will not go into the castle on the walk). There is a small charge for all day parking. This is not the Engine Yard car park but the one on the other side of the junction overlooked by the castle.

There will be a drink stop at The Windmill pub in Redmile.
