Overview

Paul Fletcher is leading a 9 mile moderate walk.

We will start from the carpark at the side of the riverside inn and walk up cliff road for a short time through the gorge. When we get to Cox's cave we will turn to the left and join the path towards Lion Rock we will then turn right along the gorge towards Gorsey then Tyng's farm we will join the road before going over Black Down towards Beacon Batch, before dropping down to the other side of the gorge. We will then climb again coming down the other side of the gorge seeing some spectacular views. There is an option of climbing down Jacobs ladder or carrying on along the path back to the car park.
