Overview

 A lovely varied and scenic walk from Beetham- Heron Corn Mill. We pass through Hale and cross over an amazing limestone pavement, through a beautiful mossy wood to  descend to  the coast. Great views up the Kent Estuary and a return via the the Storth coastline, Milnthorpe and the deer park. This is a short walk that ticks a lot of boxes!

Given the limestone pavement that  we must cross, please make sure that  you wear walking boots as limestone can be very slippy when wet.

Please remember to bring a packed lunch.

The suggested donation for non-Ramblers Association (RA) members is £2 to cover Meet-up costs.

Please note that we restrict the number of places available on Meet-up as (unlike other Meet-up groups) we have a significant number of Ramblers who attend our walks and who are not required to book as attending via this app. We would, therefore, respectfully request that you do not reserve a place on any walk unless you are sure that you will attend. 

Alternatively, why not join us and be a part of the Ramblers for a small annual subscription? Membership guarantees a place on all 'Hike on Lancashire' walks and ensures priority access to events organised by the Group. You can also walk with any other Ramblers Group across the UK.

Annual subscriptions go toward maintaining paths and allow the RA to campaign for improved access to the countryside. You will also receive the monthly 'Walk' magazine and a 15% discount at Cotswold Outdoors.
