Join us for the Hospice of the Good Shepherd 7 Locks, 7 Miles Great Canal Sponsored Walk. We will provide you with a bacon butty (or vegan alternative) and hot drink before you set off on the walk.
Setting off from the Hospice, you will walk through Backford village and join the Shropshire Union Canal Path. You'll follow the canal right around Chester city centre, the route will take you past various sights including 7 Locks, one of which being the famous Northgate Staircase Locks, if you are lucky enough you may catch a glimpse of a narrowboat travelling through!
Finishing out at Christleton at The Cheshire Cat pub, where you will have the opportunity to stop for lunch. We will have shuttle busses running back to the Hospice to drop you back to your car.
