Discover Belper Channels Walk - Saturday 3rd October 11am

Overview

Most people are surprised to find out how many channels there are in Belper, most of them hidden from view. They illustrate all of Belper’s History. Most of the paths are easy to walk but the steps on some channels are surprisingly steep. Join leader John Morrissey on this 4 mile circular walk which covers the northern areas of historic Belper and circle around to Dam Side and back to the Market Place.

Walking boots or sturdy footwear are recommended.

Well behaved dogs on leads are welcome on this walk.

Unfortunately due to the uneven nature of the walk, it is not suitable for wheelchairs or pushchairs. Enjoyed this walk?
