Overview

The walk starts at the Manifold Valley Information Centre at Hume End. From here we will go via Hayes to ascend Revidge for views across the Manifold valley. We will then go across the valley via Butterton to Wetton.  There is then an ascent to Ecton Hill for further lovely views. We finish with a steep descent to the Manifold trail passing Ecton Copper Mine. 

The walk goes through rough farming land and some paths are shared with cows and Land Rover trials so can be muddy in wet weather. There are ups and downs on the route and one steep descent.
