Teversal Trails - Nottinghamshire

Teversal Visitors Centre is a good base to start 11 different trails of
varying lengths and interest open to walkers and cyclists. Part of the trail
is on the site of the old Silverhill Pit buildings and colliery houses
which where demolished in the mid 1990's. The 5 mile nature trail includes the Rowthorne Trail to Pleasley Pit. Lady Spenser's walk is 9 miles and includes
Hardwick Estate. The three village walk takes you to Ault Hucknall, the burial
place of Thomas Hobbes through to Rowthorne and back to Teversal Village. The
Pleasley Vale walk includes the area where Florence Nightingale's father owned
the mills. These trails are all long hills going up and down with little flat
sections. Hardwick Hall is just a couple of miles away
