The section: Shustoke Reservoir offers beautiful scenery and a great place for a picnic. Activities include sailing, bird watching, fishing, or links to the Heart of England walking route. This section is working countryside where it appears moderately untouched by modern life.
The terrain: The shortest section of the route which is relatively flat with a long straight. As you leave Shustoke, you can quickly pick up the pace with a sprint section down Castle Lane.
