Park either at Wickes or at Trent Bridge and walk along the north shore of the river embankment. (Victoria Embankment)
At one point you will find a war memorial arch. Behind here you will find the Memorial Gardens with fountains etc - quite a nice place for a picnic.
At the Trent bridge end look out for the intricate decoration on the arches of the bridge.
Football fans will see the excellent view of Nottingham Forest Football ground. A circular walk is also possible using the path on the south shore.

Alternatively take a boat trip from Trent Bridge. Cruises start from 12.00hrs and last 2-3 hours.
