WASHLANDS BIG BREAKFAST TRAIL | 3 MILES | EASY| NORTHANTS
April 8 @ 6:15 am - 7:45 am BST
ABOUT THE WALK:
We will set off from Lakeside Pub, and make our way to the canal. After a short walk along the canal we then climb the small hill to the beautiful Nature Reserve / Flood Plain of Northampton, known locally as The Washlands. We pick up our pace as we circle the flood plain, taking a few snaps as we go. 3 miles later we will be back at the pub and ready for a hot coffee!
ROUND ROBIN: What phrase or saying gets on your nerves?
Please arrive by 6.15 am we will set off at 6.30 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.
MEETING PLACE: The main car park (look out for the Premiere Inn signs).
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.
