Rushcliffe Country Park, Bradmore, Bunny and Gotham, 26th November 2023

 

Rab led ten ramblers on a 9½ mile walk starting from Rushcliffe Country Park. The air temperature was at 0°C and the ground was frozen reducing the muddy conditions - flat walking with not  a single stile! 

The route went south to Bradmore and Bunny and then west across Bunny Moor and under the Great Central Railway to Gotham. From there we headed back across Gotham Moor and then back along the side of the railway.

Thanks Steve for the photos and John J for the route.
