Overview

This walk takes us north from Compton to the SDW via Little Round Down.  We then descend to the other side of the ridge and walk to Treyford, where we ascend back up to the SDW on Treyford Hill.  This is a cheeky hill which we will take at a nice slow pace....At the top we are rewarded with lunch at the Devil's Jumps. We continue to Hooksway, cross the B2141 then return to Compton by way of East and Up Marden. 

This walk is hilly.  Treyford Hill is steep in some short sections. The paths round Treyford can be overgrown. 

Please book onto this walk with the leader.
