Overview

Join us for a circular 4.5 mile walk in the beautiful Talley area.  Weather permitting there will be splendid views.  We start on a good track going gently up through woodland with views including of the two Talley lakes.  We emerge at an open area with 200 degree views of the surrounding area.  Again weather permitting we will have a short refreshment stop here.  We then gradually head down back to Talley over open moorland grazing land and this is where it may be muddy from the recent bad weather.  The last section of the walk is along very quiet lanes back into Talley, passing some fine houses on the way. There are no stiles on the route.
