Overview

Starting at the Poppy and Pint, we walk through part of Lady Bay to follow the footpath from the Hook to the Trent. We go east along the Trent past the sailing club and follow the Trent until we come to the lock; we then go inland to the Water Sports centre, following it to the eastern end. There we will have a coffee stop; this is 3.1 miles from the start of the walk.
We now walk south west along the Water Sports centre after which we go back to the Trent and retrace our route back to the Poppy and Pint for a well-earned lunch.

If you would like to join this walk please contact the Leader using the email link. The maximum number of walkers is 15. If staying for lunch please arrive by 9:45 to pre-order your food.
