Overview

It is nearly the festive season, so what better than a good old Christmas mystery. This one is a mystery walk and is part of my Flat 5 series. The walk leader will be keeping the route a close secret. Not until you tread the paths and roads will you know where you are going.

Maybe we will go along an old railway line or even a disused canal. Just when the tension is beginning to be overwhelming, there is a surprise stop in the walk and an unexpected treat. 

Our return to the starting point will be by a further mystery route. We should be back before 1:30 pm but if you use a pay for car park in West Bridgford, please get plenty of parking time just in case we are later.
