TEARDROP & FURZTON LAKES (MK) | 4.8 MILES | MODERATE | BUCKS

April 15 @ 6:15 pm - 8:15 pm BST

The one with the very rare Muscovy Ducks! A new walk, written by Emma Sapsford.

🥾 ABOUT THE WALK 🥾

We start at teardrop lakes which is part of the MK balancing lake system which helps divert storm waters away from residential areas. We then head towards the Milton Keynes Bowl then over the bridge into Furzton Lake. Following the lake you will see endless wildlife, including herons, swans, geese and maybe one of the 4 Muscovy ducks that live at Furzton lake.

🗣 W ALK LEADERS: Emma Sapsford

Please arrive by 6.15 pm we will set off at 6.30 pm sharp. If this is your first walk then please seek out the walk leader who will be wearing a red walk leader badge.

❓ ROUND-ROBIN QUESTION: Do you volunteer for anything?

Note: we often meet in places where there is no postcode, so we encourage you to use the What3Words app which will take you to the exact location.

  • Good trainers or walking shoes (and other clothes of course!).
  • A drink.

⛑ RULES TO KEEP YOU SAFE :

  • We walk in all weathers, however, if we have a weather warning then the event may be cancelled. You will be notified by email, but we will also update the Facebook event if we need to cancel a walk.
  • We will only ever walk in groups of 15 or less. If we have more than 15, we will have two walk leaders and walk in opposite directions.
  • Sweets at the halfway stage – we call this “squidge and dip” – hand sanitiser, then dip in for your free sweets. If we have furry friends, then we also have “treats” at the halfway stage.
