● The Weather Forecast

Hidden away, out of sight, are dozens of computers and hundreds of staff, beavering away to give you a good indication as to whether it’s going to rain tomorrow, or not. Click HERE to read the outcome of all the rune-casting.

● Lydiate Parish Hall

Lydiate Parish Hall is at the hub of the walk. Click HERE to learn more about the facilities which the Hall can offer.

● Cars and Bikes

Many, if not most, of our walkers will chose to come by car or bike. No problem. For information about how to get to the Start by road, whether from North, East, South, or even West, click HERE

● Parking

There are few subjects more emotive than Parking. If you click HERE you will find out how to do it, easily and (relatively!) cheaply, with a space which is yours for the day.

● Buses and Trains

Public Transport offers a green alternative, and we have links to Journey Planners, bus and train timetables, and route maps. Finding the information you need is as easy as clicking HERE!

● The Walk Route

This year, the Start and Finish are at the Lydiate Parish Hall. But although the two are at the same place they are also 6 or 10 miles apart. Clicking HERE will give you a thumbnail description of the route you will be following.

● Food & Drink

Walking the walk uses up calories, and it is a good idea to replace at least some of these. Our friends of the Inner Wheel Club can help you with this. Click HERE to visit the kitchen.
