Overview

The route will include riverside walking, the villages of Westborough and Dry Doddington (notable for its church with a tower that leans at a greater angle than the Leaning Tower of Pisa), plus a section of the Viking Way. The walk is mostly fairly flat, but there is one quite steep hill. There will be coffee and picnic lunch stops. 

Please register for this walk on Newark Ramblers website where you will also find details of our car share scheme.
