Filmed on a beautiful February morning just after a cold snap. It was mild, spring was in the air, and the animals were out and about.

The full route from Sandbach is seven and a half miles. The Wheelock loop itself is three and a half, starting and ending by the Trent and Mersey Canal at Wheelock, so you can do just that if you'd rather.
