    A simple route along the river, also working in the golden riverbanks that give the town its name and an optional climb up them to discover a chapel from the 1300s.

    Park at Shalford Park, which I believe isn't very expensive and also has some play equipment.

    Take the path that goes adjacent to the road, some days you'll see a football game on your left, some days, cows. At the end of the path you'll have a bridge in front of you over the river. Cross this and follow the path to the left along the river.

    Keep going until you reach another big bridge over the river. Lots of people get in and paddle here. This is also where you see the big sandy hill that can be climbed up to reach the chapel. On the way down I have marked an easier route, which does go past a very pretty little bridge.

    When ready to return, cross the big bridge and follow the path back to Shalford Park.

    About the Calorie Calculator

    Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

    When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

    Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
