Lichfield personal trainer Raúl Romero shares some of his favourite nature routes for gentle walking.
- New Lichfield Canal Walk
This is a 2.4km loop trail located near Waitrose in Lichfield that offers scenic views and is good for all skill levels. The trail is primarily used for hiking, nature trips and bird watching.
- Sutton Park – Bracebridge Pool
Sutton Park is an amazing place for walkers and one of my absolute favourites. There are so many different gates and routes that you’ll never be bored of it. One of my favourites is the walk around Bracebridge Pool. It is probably less than a mile long, but you can make it longer using other paths and coming back to the pool.
- Cannock Chase (Birches Valley Gate)
This is a very popular route thanks to the great facilities that it boasts such as the Gruffalo trail which is fab for kids, as well as facilities such as toilets and a café. You can choose to meander along and explore the different routes in your own way or follow one of the specific walking trails.
