Gentle walk starting at Conkers. Initially following the canal and going past the Moira Furnace (museum). The walk then heads into open country and a nice section following Hooborough Brook through the woods. Generally the path is fairly good with few is any muddy sections. The route goes along the road into Netherseal but its a quiet road. After Netherseal the path goes cross country to Overseal and it can be slightly soft underfoot but not hard to avoid any muddy patches. Very gentle gradients and easy walk with some nice scenery.
