Overview

BOOKING REQUESTED.  Minimum of 6 walkers required for this walk to take place.

A moderate walk from Chipping in the Forest of Bowland through farms, via The Ribble Valley Jubilee Trail to New Laund Farm near Whitewell returning via Leagram Hall to Chipping  village.  Weather permitting there should be beautiful views over the River Hodder, Valley, fells and Forest of Bowland. Risk assessment: There will be livestock in the fields. Conditions underfoot shouldn’t be too bad after the summer despite recent rainfall but there may be the odd muddy field.
