We are the Mortimer Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
We’ll circle around the eastern side of the reserve to the Blakemoorgate miners cottages, before descending to Snailbeach via a section of the miner’s trail. Crowsnest Dingle is our route back up to the ridge. After a fairly long climb (it’s long rather than very steep), we’ll have lunch on Oak Hill near to Castle Ring Fort. The return leg is via Shepherd’s Rock and Black Ditch. Much of the walk has fabulous views so let’s hope skies are clear.
Some paths are rocky and uneven; (however we are not going along the very rocky path on the main ridge). Short section of boggy ground in the dingle.
Sorry for the 9.30am start – it was either that or a very late lunch! Bring MMR and pack lunch. Free parking
