Overview

A circular route around the pretty surrounding countryside of Burwardsley, Beeston, Peckforton and Bulkeley villages. The walk offers several opportunities to see the Beeston and Peckforton castles along the way.

We will also follow sections of the sandstone trail where we pass Bulkeley hill near the end of the walk, which offers lovely views. There are a few ascents in places across fields and tracks but not too strenuous.

5 miles into the walk, a lunch stop will break up the hardest hill climb offering a nice view if the weather is nice!

After the walk they’ll be an optional pub visit to the Pheasant Inn at Burwardsley.
