Terrain:

The terrain at Aylestone Meadows in Leicestershire is predominantly flat and easy. Paths are a mix of surfaced tracks (tarmac or compacted gravel on main routes like the canal towpath or Great Central Way), and grassy meadow paths which can be very muddy and wet after rain, especially as it is a floodplain area. Some sections may have boardwalks. Many main paths are accessible for pushchairs and wheelchairs, making this Leicestershire reserve welcoming to all.
