Overview

A very scenic walk, initially following the Viking Way alongside Nettleton Beck (widely regarded as the prettiest part of the Viking Way) and past old ironstone workings towards Acre House. We then head east to our pub stop (hopefully!) in the village of Rothwell. The return is along tracks with excellent views all around.

Take M180 to jct 4 then A1084 to Brigg and Caistor. Turn right onto A46 then left to Nettleton and follow signs through the village to the Ramblers car park. The car park is quite small, so car sharing is advisable.
