Everards Meadows Walk

0.8 miles (1.3 km)

This 70 acre park near Glen Parva in Leicestershire has some great cycling and walking trails to try. On the eastern side of the park there's waterside trails to pick up along the River Soar and the Grand Union Canal Walk.... The meadows are a great spot for wildlife watching with a variety of bird species to see at the site.
There's also on site cycle hire at Rutland Cycles. You can extend your cycling by picking up National Cycle Route 6 which runs past the park.
