3XFebruary 2022 by Grifftinfoilhat

Route description

Worcester to Droitwich Based on Wordro One (246_Wordro_Worcester_Droitwich Spa.gpx) Improved to avoid a very wet and muddy field. Moved the Droitwich section around to stick to the correct side of the canal. Altered the part though Droitwich town cetnre to use the underpass and avoid having to cross the roundabout. Features to note: Not possible to wheel. Several parts are on road with no pavements. Hi-visibility vest recommended. A footbridge over the rail line, with steps This route has one style to climb. There are a few benches along the route. Lots of muddy and rough paths with roots sticking out. Narrow alleyways. One arrow tracks through a field of crops. Steep parts where the canal paths join roads.
