Rotherham Rotary Roundwalk
'The Rotherham Roundwalk is a recognised Long Distance Footpath of just under 25 miles ... It starts and finishes near All Saints' Parish Church in the town centre, and may be walked any time. However an annual charity walk organised by the Rotary Club of Rotherham took place over the route from the 1980s to 2014. For some years it became a highlight of the Rotherham Walking Festival. Over the years it raised over £86,000 for local good causes. However it recently became ineffective as a fund raising project and the club decided to put its efforts into other activities.'
Ramblers
'The 25-mile route is a complete clockwise circuit from the northwest of the town round to the southwest. It leaves the town through a wooded clough and soon enters attractive countryside round the Wentworth Estate in the north. It then goes through a short industrial section and semi urban area to the west, and more undulating rural country to the south, re-entering the town through Boston Park. There is a variety of terrain, with the majority on public footpaths, but all relatively easy walking including one or two short steepish climbs.'
