From Ockbrook to Risley, Stanton by Dale & Hopwell. Fields and tracks, several stiles, and a couple of moderate hills, the highest 122m, with total ascent 322m. It's March, so expect almost any weather conditions.
The group does not stop at cafes or pubs for lunch, and you should bring enough food and drinks with you to last the whole walk. We usually stop for a coffee break an hour or so into the walk, and stop for packed lunch around 1230-1300 although weather and a suitable location will affect both timings.
Risk assessment: The walk leader has assessed this walk for the following risks, but during the walk others may become evident. You WILL come across stiles, gates and other path furniture, hedges, possibly road crossings, fields with crops. You MAY come across muddy/slippery/flooded sections of path, inclement weather, farm livestock & warning signs. You are asked to be aware and take individual responsibility.
