Best walk from Narborough
Leicestershire · East Midlands of England | Walks by train
MapSet out on a beautiful walk directly from Narborough Station.
Narborough Station to Leicester Station
A mostly off-road, fairly direct walk through farm fields, local meadows, canal towpath and the tree-lined Great Central Way old railway line, staying green for much of the way into the city. Good underfoot and with one short uphill section and some steps; shared with cyclists. Uses the Great Central Way. Train links at both ends make a walk-there, train-back option easy.
Easy: 11km, gentle ascents.
The path between Whetstone and Littlethorpe can flood after prolonged rain or melting snow, with an electric fence constraining the path. Bike barriers limit access at a few points. Castle Gardens are locked at dusk.
Lunch stop: King's Lock Tearoom.
