The Jubilee Way was opened in1977, to mark the Queen’s Silver Jubilee.
This twenty mile walk starts at Burrough Hill Country Park, taking in the rolling hills of High Leicestershire, through Melton Mowbray to Melton Country Park, then across open countryside to the beautiful Vale of Belvoir before ending at Brewer’s Grave, just beyond Woolsthorpe by Belvoir in Lincolnshire.
The route links with the long distance path of the Viking Way
The route has been clearly waymarked with the Jubilee Way symbol to aid navigation through the countryside.
The present Castle is the fourth to have stood on the site since Norman times. The existing Castle was completed in the early 19th century after previous buildings suffered complete or partial destruction during the Wars of the Roses, the Civil War and a major fire in 1816. The grounds include the Rose and Statue Gardens which are elegantly laid out round a central fountain, where a statue collection is set back into a terrace in the hillside. There are superb specimen trees dating back hundreds of years.
This Munzee has been deployed using an iPhone 4 and Orange/T-mobile network. Should you find it and be unable to scan then please take a photograph and contact Munzee who may allow the capture.
