Overview

Roy will be taking his walkers across the valley out in the direction of Smart Hill. Over a third of the total route will be on minor roads but it has been wet but better now when tested on 16 April. I have now amended the route slightly and whilst wet today is considerably better. The route is now shorter at 5 miles but note there is no stop at The Bottlehouse. There are two main wet parts but made up for by some amazing views.

Note the amended route now has FIVE stiles.

As before ring or email me if concerned - roypatey@gmail.com

We have now 11 for lunch which is great.

Roy considers the going is Moderate to Hard in places.
