The destination of this lovely walk is a vaguely kidney-shaped bench outside the renal unit.
Accessibility
This route has no stairs. The indoor portion is on smooth hospital corridors, and outside the surface is fairly smooth pavement. There are very slight slopes, and there are some dropped curbs. Handrails are available inside only. There are rest seats along much of the route and at the destination. The noise level is low to medium and there may be people smoking outside. There is one set of toilets available en route. This route would be challenging but not impossible with a drip stand.
