Organiser's Description

The event will start and finish at South Wheatley Village Hall. The route takes Nottinghamshire's scenic rural countryside, using a combination of local waterway tow paths: The Cuckoo Way (Chesterfield Canal), and the Trent Valley Way (River Trent). The route follows the tranquil and scenic waterways most of the way, keeping navigation simple. It has a real cross country feel at times in remote areas, given the nature of the River Trent flood bank. 90% trail, with only some minor roads/tracks along the Trent Valley Way to link waterways. NB: Some of the flood bank running by the side of the Trent is rough underfoot providing a real challenge!
