Overview

Walking from the large car park at Warton Crags we climb steadily to reach a viewpoint overlooking Morecambe Bay. We then steadily drop down to join the Old Occupation Road back to the main road and make our way to the estuary and Jenny Brown's point. From then on we will follow a quiet coastal lane to Gibralter Point, onward to Silverdale Green and Leighton Moss. Quiet lanes again and woodlands to return to our starting point.
