This time we were walking to Donisthorpe and only 8 people formed the group. We set off for the canal and walked to the edge of the Donisthorpe Woodland Park and followed the route in a counter clockwise direction this involved a bit of the old railway, a path by a collection of containers we know not what they are used for and on by the woodland centre but did not enter. Instead we carried onto the canal and followed its towpath back to the Furnace and to the Hub cafe. Total distance about 2.5 miles.
