If You Are Travelling From Desborough It Is Best To Go Through Arthingworth. When Driving Down You Will See A Bridge, Just Before The Bridge You Will See A Car Park On Your Right. That’S Where I Would Recommend Parking As It Is The Start Of The Walk.

Kelmarsh Tunnels
Brought Oscar My Dog Here For The First Time Today. (17/8/20) Nice Walk Although The Tunnel Itself Was A Bit Mucky And Slippery Which Is To Be Expected Due To The Weather. Word Of Advice...If You’Re Visiting After A Prolonged Or Heavy Rainfall, Do Wear Suitable Footwear. Also Being A Good Strong Beamed Torch Too. We Enjoyed It And Will Be Back To Explore Further.
