Overview

This walk will include a longish steep walk up for views or the Bristol Channel and down to the picturesque village of Crowcombe for the lunch pub break and a climb back up for more extensive views and down again to the car park . Although a demanding walk the rewards are excellent views, that will distract you from the 1927ft of ascent that this walk entails. We should also have some wonderful colours with the heathers at this time of year.
