The Route:
A beautiful highlights tour of North Nottinghamshire. It starts and finishes at tickingclocktaproom, takes the canal out towards Clumber Park (a beautiful National Trust) estate, and winds its way around the lakes and Sherwood Forest. Then it dives into the villages of Norton and Cuckney, onto the gorgeous Welbeck Estate, running though the impressive Creswell Crags, through to Whitwell and skirting the woods there, back through smaller villages and up onto the canal (also the Cuckoo Way) back into the brewery.
We have lovingly called the route the ‘chicken run’ and if you’re on Strava, the Strava art is a free added bonus!
The paths are runnable. The elevation is around 457 metres, mainly in the second half. Which means you can run, jog, Jeff or fast walk around Clumber with ease and then really enjoy a different view around each corner towards the end half of the route.
We will have a well tested GPX file and written instructions. Please do note that it’s not a signposted course, in the main.
Check it out though. It’s not a secret any more. Here is the Plot a Route link!
