Overview

This is the ninth in a series of walks which will cover the 75 mile National Forest Way.  From Rosliston Forestry Centre we will make our way via Caldwell and Linton to Overseal, where we pick up the National Forest way, which we follow all the way back to the car park, passing through young and established woodlands including Cadborough Hill Wood, Grange Wood, Potters Wood, Top Wood and Penguin Wood.  Field paths, farm tracks, country park and some road walking.  May be muddy in places after wet weather.
