Starting at Piccadilly Station, this is almost a circular walk, ending at Home (First Street) within easy reach of Oxford Road and Piccadilly stations.
Avoiding busy roads almost completely except occasionally to cross them, but where possible going under them, it is almost entirely flat all the way and will be taken at a moderate pace so we can look at things, and also because at times the canalside paths are narrow.
