SOUTHERN REGIONAL RAMBLE
Monday 14th July 2014
RIPARIAN RAMBLE.
Come and join us for this pleasant and easy ramble along the River Itchen, starting from The White Swan public house at Mansbridge, following the riverside path (hence riparian!) to Woodmill, then on along Riverside Park to Cobden Bridge, returning via the outer edge of Riverside Park. There is a skateboard park that the more daring of us may wish to try and provide us some amusement! On returning to Mansbridge we do a loop to incorporate a ride round a large lily pond and along some tracks back to the White Swan, where those of us who wish can have an evening meal.
This is a Cat 2 ramble, of approx 5/6 miles so is suitable for most scooters. Meet 11.30am to leave at 12 noon.
Bring packed lunch, then we can return to the White Swan at a decent time for a meal. The management are more than happy for us to use their car park, and there is an ideal place at the far end – keep the pub on your right on entering the car park and proceed to the end.
