Winter, Spring, Summer or Autumn the walk to Thorne Lock and Buntings Wood offers some interesting views of the boat yards along the way in addition to natural habitat. The return trip can be made via the old town centre which even on Sundays there are some of the main retail shops open. During the week the chandlery near to the new swing bridge over the canal next to the park is fascinating place to visit even if you do not have a boat.

To see a map and a guide of this visit the Thorne & Moorends Website We are also very close to the recently introduced   and very popular Peatlands Way walk for more details click here.

If there has been any rain walking shoes might be advisable as well as some protective rain wear should the weather be showery.
