Overview

This is a circular walk going out via Cinder Hill and the Bluebell Railway line. It is a very peaceful walk passing through very varied scenic countryside with  lots of different kinds of woods and open fields with wonderful far reaching views. There are some stretches of unavoidable mud, where poles would be helpful. An undulating walk with a couple of narrow steep uphill and downhill paths.
NOTE There is a narrow concrete footbridge across a stretch of water that has an incomplete handrail.
