We are the Take a Hike Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
This route passes weavers cottages, stone mills; follows old pack horse trails and canal paths. However, the dominant feature is the spectacular landscape: steep wooded hillsides, bleak moorland and craggy river valleys.
Distance is approximately 9-10 miles and has an ascent of about 300m, so should take between 4 and 5 hours to complete. The route contains a good number of steep climbs.
Due to time of year, there are several areas that are muddy and slippy, so decent walking boots are essential.
Unfortunately dogs cannot be permitted due to the presence of livestock.
