2 to 3 miles with Little Climbing
Each Mid-Week Stroller walk has a destination providing a walk and venue for drinks / snacks or meal and starts at 10:30am
Meet at the UCLan sports arena , off Tom Benson Way (Sat Nav: PR2 1SG) . Opposite the Final Whistle Cafe , adjacent to car park No3 (toilets are available adjacent to the Final Whistle cafe prior to the start of the Stroller).
Then after to The Guild Merchant , 440 , Tag Lane , Ingol (Sat Nav: PR2 7AB).
We start todays Stroll down the footpath between the pristine UCLan sports pitches and the Lancaster Canal to pick up the tow path taking us to the Ribble Links ( triple ) locks basin . From here we drop down to follow the footpath to Haslam Park .
On reaching the park we need to keep a lookout for the Green Parakeets which apparently live and breed here along with Swans , Moorhens , Dragonflies , Coots , Heron , Damselflies .....
A wander around the park , nature reserve , lake , and meadows brings us back to the canal tow path which leads us back to our stating point.
