Overview

John says this walk is something of an amble down memory lane.

This autumnal walk in and around Dalby Forest visits some ever popular haunts like Staindale Lake and the Adderstone(not to mention the Enchanted Wood and a zip wire for those in need of an adrenaline rush!) However it also includes the more recent and controversial  Nissan Hut sculpture by Turner award winning artist Rachel Whitehead. With a total ascent of around 1,640 feet, the route has some steep ascents. If wet, poles would be handy.
