Overview

This walk begins in Wollaton Village at the junction of Dovecote Drive and Bramcote Lane (park on or nearby Dovecote Drive). We walk around the edge of Wollaton Park and cross over Derby Road into University Park where there is a lakeside coffee stop with bench seating and toilets nearby. We then cross over University Boulevard and proceed toward the Beeston Canal. We then go through Lenton Village and have a lunch stop at Lenton Recreation Ground. Then we follow the River Leen and find our way back towards Wollaton Park Golf Club and back toward Wollaton Village.
