The Easy Walkers and Strollers groups met at Langley Mill Canal Basin to walk together along the Erewash Canal in beautiful sunshine enhancing the Autumn colours.
Whilst the Strollers took the shorter route, the Easy Walkers continued along the canal to Shipley Lock.
We all met up at the New Horizon Church Coffee Shop, which is well worth a visit.
The Easy Walkers enjoyed a pleasant stroll around the outskirts of Bulwell Hall Park, stopping off for refreshments at the golf club house.
The earlier start of 9.45am meant we missed the midday heat. How quickly the area has turned brown, let’s hope we have some rain soon! Who’d have thought we’d be saying that!
Thanks to all the walkers who attended.
A walk over Bennerley Viaduct was enjoyed by the Easy Walkers Group in bright sunshine.
It is hoped that by the middle of the year the visitors centre and café will be open so we will be returning to check it out again no doubt.
It’s a pleasant three mile walk with rewarding views over the Erewash valley. Well worth a visit.
A walk along the bottom of the Ranges onto Black Pad and back to Linby was enjoyed by 15 Easy Walkers.
Obviously a coffee at the end of the walk (2.5 miles) at Brooke Farm was much appreciated.
Thanks to those who walked with us.
Despite heavy rain and overcast skies, six hardy walkers boarded the tram to Nottingham to alight at Gregory Street and follow the course of the canal back to London Road. A coffee stop at Hopkinsons was a well needed break before our tram ride home.
Thanks to those who attended!
