We are the Mortimer Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
A lovely walk through unspoilt countryside with beautiful views weather permitting!
We leave Birtley and make an ascent to the top of Harleys mountain, this is a climb but we will go at a steady pace , we then go through open fields and woodland into Lingen, we then make our way via the church and old earthworks to the edge of Deerfold and end by walking a medieval dyke. There is one steep descent which is not muddy but poles would be helpful.
Very few stiles.
If you would like to join this walk, please book a place with the leader. If you are unable to attend, please cancel your booking so that someone else can take your place. If you turn up without booking, we may have to turn you away.
Registered assistance dogs only.
Please bring mid morning and lunch time refreshments.
Car sharing is encouraged to minimise car parking, fuel cost and carbon footprint.
