Starting at The Boat (pub) in Allerton Bywater, (WF10 2BX for those who navigate by satellite) where lunch is a very attractive option, as are the hand-pulled draught beers! Then departing about 1.00 p.m., past The Victoria, to walk about 3 km alongside the river through a wild-life haven, finally crossing the river to arrive at another pub (The Commercial) for a well-earned rest.

Set off again at about 3.30, returning by the same route to The Boat by 5.00 – 5.30, where the evening menu is served from 5.30.

Parking at The Boat has been arranged.

Sensible footwear and hats are advised. Falling in the river is not advised, but could be good for a laugh. Please bring a pen.

Please ask children not to swear in front of the grownups. They probably know enough bad words already!
