Skip the Cheshire Oaks traffic by walking there from the National Waterways Museum along the Shropshire Union Canal & back again.

Step 1: For a quick woodland walk, Church Wood at Rivacre Country Park is great. A bit muddy underfoot, so grab your wellies & let’s get splashing.

Step 2: Start at the gate by the side of the cemetery. The sign shows you the way.

Step 3: Through the tall trees you get glimpses of the sky between the branches.

Step 4: The path winds you through the woods, between the trees and under the canopy above.

Step 5: Look out for fairy holes at the bottom of the trees. Or do you think that elves live here?

Step 6: This is a very easy walk to follow as the path takes you right through the woods, curving around the trees and nearby golf course.
