Etherow Country Park Walk
15 people attending
5 places left
Join ODL leader Michael for a Saturday morning leisure walk at Etherow Country Park. We will meet outside the cafe and then walk through the park. Before we arrive at the waterfall, we will head up to the trail which takes us past Weir Cottage. There are a couple of steep inclines (but only very short) during this part of the walk. We will walk along the trail until we come to the Keg Pool which we will walk around. We will stop off at the sensory garden before arriving at the waterfall. After a group photo, we'll head back along the other side of the park before arriving at the cafe. After the walk, you can stay around and have food or a drink at either the main cafe or the Potting Shed next door which also serves food and drink.
The walk is around 4.5 miles and should take around two hours. It's relatively flat for most parts although there are some inclines. The walk is dog friendly.
Depending on weather conditions, it could be muddy in places, so you may want to bring walking boots rather than trainers.
