Easy Countryside and Waterway Guided Walk ~ In Cheshire and Free.
This free guided waterway walk is suitable for beginners, so if you’re keeping fit and well wish to come along and join us, we would love to see more guest visitors. Please book your place for the walk, and perhaps for lunch, as soon as you are confident you will be available.
Featuring the river Dee; this popular circular walk will be about 4 miles long and most of the route is along well used footpaths which pass through a wide variety of scenery. You pass through cultivated fields and along the edge of a big new housing estate. There are no steep slopes and most of the route is fairly level and there is a short but pleasant section of planted woodland just before you arrive at the river. On your return towards Farndon you will pass through meadows alongside the river which are easy walking, you will also climb over the only stile on the walk.
There will be a ten-minute break about half-way round the walk for ‘bring your own’ refreshments and this walk will finish with an optional pub lunch.
