UPTON AND SIXFIELDS RESERVOIR TRAIL | 6 MILES | NORTHAMPTON

🥾 ABOUT THE WALK 🥾

Starting from Upton Country Park it is not long before we venture off to the canal and look out for the herons. The walk leads us to Sixfields Reservoir which is a one-hectare nature reserve in Northampton. It is managed by the Wildlife Trust for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire. We will be walking a circular route around the river which is well-trodden and paved in many places. It is a moderate walk as there are a few slightly overgrown areas and the walk is over 3 miles in length. There are a few areas that are slightly off-road and includes some declines and exposed tree roots. This walk is dog-friendly, so feel free to bring along your furry friends.

❓ ROUND-ROBIN QUESTION: Dog or cat?

Please arrive by 9.45 am we will set off at 10 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.
