The River Maun, heading in the direction of the town centre, is seen from a footbridge in Quarry Lane Local Nature Reserve. The footbridge, atop a former sluice gate, carries the Timberland Trail across the river. The Timberland Trail starts at Kingsmill Reservoir and follows a route around the southern edge of the town centre, joining the Mansfield Way at Racecourse Road. This walking and cycling path joins the route formerly followed by the Mansfield - Southwell railway line at Fisher Lane Park. It is also possible to exit this nature reserve a stone’s throw from this footbridge and to join Quarry Lane, a road that runs past the town’s football stadium. The Maun Valley Trail is carried across the river and this nature reserve by the viaduct.
