LOL.. I am getting a little too old for such an epic pub crawl though.

The golf course I have to traverse does have areas nearby for picnics and has a petting zoo nearby as well. It does have some wolves so it might be advisable no to jump the fence into the zoo though as a short cut.

Choosing a direct route (as the crow flies) from the Whip Inn to the Birkhill Inn does have some obstacles in the way such as this pond. But this is an easy obstacle to go around as I know most of the area like the back of my hand.
