10 Mile Walk - Northamptonshire

[echokilo]

I am looking to organised a sponsored ten mile walk in Northmptonshire - and am looking for ideas on where..... needs to be reasonably central and have a finish/start that can accomodate a gathering a picnic afterwards...... any ideas for locations and routes, as rural as possible?? TIA

Sywell country park....

Billing Aquadrome ...

Pitsford Reservoir...

Brilliant ummmm - any suggested routes? Sywell sounds the best option ... can you offer any suggested walks?

Contact your local rambling groups (or groups), they will have plenty of suggested walks. Get details from the library

billing aquadrome still host events - car shows etc, so I'm sure they'd be happy to help you. Parking, bar ect available too, and close to the main roads for access.
Give them a ring.
