We shall leave Westminster Park heading towards Overleigh Roundabout, turning left and joining the City walls. At Water Tower Gardens we will join the canal towpath and follow it until reaching the Countess Country Park where we will make our way through the park, covering some of the Parkrun route, before heading back home via the Parkgate Rd, Northgate Street past the Cross and down Bridge St, turning right onto Grosvenor Rd and back to Westminster Park
