"The Redways form an extensive network of shared-use paths passing through all the beautiful parks, each and every estate, and into the city centre itself. They are for use by pedestrians and cyclists of all ages and levels of experience, including people with prams, pushchairs and those in wheelchairs."
As such, the Redways provide an ideal Geocaching highway!
