Seven Locks Seven Miles Event

Thursday, 27 July 2023 09:51

Seven Locks Seven Miles is a free to enter sponsored walk and you can bring all your friends, family and even your dogs!

At the start you’ll get a bacon sandwich and hot drink to give you energy for the 7 miles and all we ask is that you raise some sponsorship.

Setting off from the Hospice, where you can park for free, you will walk through Backford village and join the Shropshire Union Canal Path. You'll follow the canal right around Chester city centre and out to Christleton finishing off at The Cheshire Cat pub, where you will have the opportunity to stop for lunch. Cheshire Cat are offering 10% too all that participate in the 7 Locks 7 Mile event.

The route will take you past various sights including 7 locks, one of which being the famous Northgate Staircase Locks, if you are lucky enough you may catch a glimpse of a narrowboat travelling through! There's also 19 bridges along the route of all different architecture and design, you'll be going under and over them get to the finishing point.

We will be running shuttle buses from The Cheshire Cat back to the Hospice of the Good Shepherd to collect your vehicle so there's no need to worry about getting back to the car to get home.

If this sounds good to you, please follow the link to register:
