FUNKY FLORE WALK | 4 MILES | MODERATE | NORTHANTS
March 26 @ 9:45 am - 2:30 pm GMT
🥾 ABOUT THE WALK 🥾
I love this walk which was written by AG members and locals, Wendy & Angie. We leave Flore and work our way along with the fields and follow the River Nene, before heading off along the canal for a short while. Spot hidden milestones, and we will show you a very unusual geocache before we turn off the canal and climb up towards Church Stowe. The views from here are wonderful! We then pass unusual sightings which include a huge native Indian, a knight in shining armour, some signs that will make you laugh out loud and a cute little home for hedgehogs and fairies! Yep, this walk is a bit strange but I guarantee it will put a smile on your face. There is a little bit of road walking and a few stiles to hop over before we head back down to the village of Flore.
❓ ROUND-ROBIN QUESTION: How often do you have your hair cut?
Please arrive by 9.45 am we will set off at 10 am sharp. If this is your first AG walk, then please arrive nice and early and seek out the walk leader who will be wearing a red “walk leader” pin badge.
