Overview

This walk follows Gun Moor and the Roaches escarpments along a good selection of field paths (where there may be sheep and lambkins).  Turner’s pool is passed on route with various stiles for good measure.  It is considered to be moderate with two slight elevations to the Roaches and back to Gun Moor. Otherwise, pleasant walking along with good views. 

Please see the route Map for further details.

Walkers from other groups are always welcome, as are non-members wanting to sample walking with our friendly group of ramblers. Just turn up and make yourself known to the walk leader. 

 

Please make sure you have an ICE (in Case of Emergency) card on you when out walking – you know it makes sense - if you don’t have one then ask the walk leader for one before the walk starts.

 

On our walks, we regret no dogs please UNLESS the walk is described as DOG FRIENDLY.
