This Lincolnshire walk is somewhat different in that walkers can do some route finding for themselves. This is because Chambers Farm Wood has several self-guided, waymarked routes that can be used to vary my preferred route described below. Part of the walk follows quiet country lanes and traverses typical Lincolnshire countryside. A GPS File is available for download (see walk description).
Please maintain social distancing - keep at least 2 metres away from other walkers.
