Overview

A squiggly lollipop shape walk, with approx 99% of it being in open countryside. After a short road walk from the start point, we will join the disused Shieldhill mineral railway line to California. After a short meander around the Community Woodland lying between California and Shieldhill we will retrace our steps along the disused railway line returning to the start point.
