We started off from Trentham Gardens and then headed out through the golf course ...the footpath goes straight through one of the tees! I think we needed a hard hat on to protect us! I'd started using Run Keeper and a voice from my pocket kept us informed as to how far we'd walked and at what speed. We then headed out to Hanchurch Woods. We saw several birds (must remember the bird book next time!) but there were some great tits, robins, blackbirds, buzzards to name a few. This walk had more ups and downs than the canal walk we did last weekend.
The final part of the walk was back into Trentham park. There was a gate open and I'm sure you can sneak into the gardens for free from there !
My Run Keeper decided to stop recording at this point (6.2 miles) but Andy's GPS kept track of us and we finished back at the Garden Centre with 7.5 miles done.
