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.
Doesn’t look much on the map, but this is an excellent short and circular walk. Passing through a varied and very rural and interesting landscape of delightful mixed woodland and summer meadows. The heathland and lakes on the Moore Nature Reserve and the yellow gorse lined paths are particularly interesting and pleasant. This is a waterways walk with two canals but probably no boats. However, if you are lucky you may see a ship passing through the landscape along the Manchester Ship Canal, but the Runcorn to Latchford Canal became derelict years ago, making a very attractive walk along the old canal bed through the woods.
There will be a ten-minute break half-way round the walk for ‘bring your own’ refreshments and this walk will finish with an optional pub lunch.
