Kineton Circular (7-mile hike) + optional Curry at Shukurs

One of the very first Friendly Faces routes, this went down a storm with all who attended, the Kineton / Little Kineton / Butlers Marston route has been repeated so many times for both new and returning hikers - we're almost into double-figures!

On one occasion, the last four of us still sitting in the pub after the walk went round the corner (unplanned) to the very awesome Shukurs restaurant and tucked into a feast of delicious Indian food as a reward for our efforts on the walk.
The Walk + Curry combo event has been repeated three times since, with 20+ people joining for the curry each time!

So I'm very happy to repeat this awesome 'double-meetup' format, and it should be noted that the restaurant part is entirely optional, so its perfectly ok to attend the walk and then go home. You wont be judged!
Of course we will need to book a table in advance to cater for the large number who want to eat, so let me know quickly whether you want a seat at the table or not.
Walkers can expect a 4 or 5pm finish, while those wanting to walk AND dine can expect a 7pm-ish finish.

Here is the old briefing video that I put together to describe what you can expect, or read below for the original description.

Following the popular Friendly Faces group walks so far in the last few months, get your name down and dont miss this next one. It's an absolute belter, and has everything you could ever wish for in a countryside walk.

Heading out into the country this time, we'll start in the centre of Kineton and take a 7-mile circular route which will include scenic views along the river Dene, the remains of St John's castle, the wildlife conservation area, and an old historical battlefield site.

The route will take us through Butlers Marston and Little Kineton, before arriving back in Kineton for a well earned sit down and refreshing drink.

Please note : Due to the close proximity with farm animals and pathways through farmers land on this route - dogs are not allowed.
