Full Walk Details
Drive between Jenno's cafe and Rutland cycling to park in a 2 hour free stay car park. From here you can walk along the wide, tarmac path, throwing frisbees to your hearts content. Veer left and you'll find yourselves walking towards a bridge which spans the river Soar. Just over the bridge is a cycle path; at this junction you can take the river walk, the cycle path, go straight ahead...it's really nice. Loads of open space for dogs to stretch their legs, and a very nice cafe to sit outside with your cappuccino when you've worn your dog out.
