A web site for friends from the former East Midlands
Region of British Gas
who meet regularly to walk in various parts of the
east midlands.
This walk amongst the paddy fields and boat people
of Hinckley's Ganges delta was organised by Talbert and Peter. The
weather forcast was terrible but apart from a 20 minute spell of rain
we stayed dry. There had obviously been a shower or two earlier though....
The walk was less than 6 miles long and through pleasant countryside
and would have been relatively easy for our first outing of 2008 if
it wasn't for the deep mud over most of the route. We also encountered
one or two stiles along the way and the mud made some of these a bit
of a challenge.Photos» Route of the walk» (pdf file)  START
POINT: The Fox Inn, Higham on the Hill Nr Nuneaton CV13 6AH
Tel 01455 212241DIRECTIONS: The easiest option is to come down the M1, onto the M69 and turn onto the A5 North. After about 5 miles you turn right to Higham. You will see from your maps that there are several shorter routes and those of you who received a Sat Nav in your Christmas stocking may wish to give it a whirl.  |
