Jurassic Way
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Template:Use British English Template:Infobox hiking trail
The Jurassic Way is a designated and signed long-distance footpath that connects the Oxfordshire town of Banbury with the Lincolnshire town of Stamford in England.[1] It largely follows an ancient ridgeway traversing Britain; most of its Script error: No such module "convert". route is in Northamptonshire on the Jurassic limestone ridge in the north of that county.[2][3]
The trail goes near the Oxford and Grand Union canals, past the Great Central Railway's Catesby Tunnel and viaduct, the River Welland, the 82-arch viaduct at Harringworth,[4] and Rockingham Castle.[5]
It connects with these long-distance footpaths:
- Grand Union Canal Walk,[6]
- Hereward Way,
- Macmillan Ways,[7]
- Midshires Way,
- Oxford Canal Walk.[8]
The ancient trackway on which the Jurassic Way is based likely continued at each end, particularly following the Lincoln Cliff towards the Humber estuary.
