Overview

There will be 2 walks on this Ramble

Walk 1 will be led by Andy & will be 7 miles

Walk 2 will be led by Denise & will be 5 miles 

A reasonably Strenuous walk of 7 miles,with four stiles and an initial steep climb for the first mile.The going then gets easier following well defined tracks to the Singing Ringing Tree, hopefully we should have excellent views in all directions before  descending through fields and then other well defined tracks back to the Ram Inn at Holme Chapel for refreshments !

For your own and other people's safety,please abide by any advice and guidance issued by the group and the instructions of the walk leaders.Every care is taken in planning our walks but we can accept no liability and participation is entirely at your own risk.
