1. I walked from Nottingham to Carlton. This shows an example of streets for the initial part of the route. 1.4 km from start — 22 Oct 2021
2. Just before the train crossing, the path branches left up to Colwick Woods Nature Reserve (with the first of the cycle barriers, this one 36 cm at its narrowest point). 2.4 km from start — 22 Oct 2021
3. The path immediately climbs up the hill, in elongated steps. 2.4 km from start — 22 Oct 2021
4. There are steps up and down parts of the nature reserve. 2.5 km from start — 22 Oct 2021
5. An uphill section of the route. If you are using a gps device, at this point you may feel that you are straying off the path of the route, but don't worry you aren't. The route is veering right and you cannot follow, just keep going forward and upwards, keeping to the right. You will both meet up a little later on the route. 2.7 km from start — 22 Oct 2021
6. The highest point of the path. Around here the path can get muddy after rain and so boots may need to be worn in the winter. 2.7 km from start — 22 Oct 2021
7. More steps on the downward section of the route. You may encounter wasps at another time of year, but there were none around in October! 3.4 km from start — 22 Oct 2021
8. The cycle barrier at the exit of the Nature Reserve. These were 38 cm at the narrowest point. 4.4 km from start — 22 Oct 2021
9. The cycle barrier on the path next to the railway line. These were 38 cm at the narrowest point. 5.2 km from start — 22 Oct 2021
