Overview

This is a 9.4 mile circular walk starting at Froghall Wharf, taking in Oakamoor. 

Please see the route map for route details. 

There is one short but steep climb through woodlands. 

It was frosty for the recent recce  so may well be soft & muddier in a few places. 

So pole/s are highly recommended for several sections.

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.
