Overview

BOOKING REQUESTED

Field paths to Wiswell and an ascent to the mast. Then on to Sabden where we ascend again towards Black Hill trig point to take more field tracks back to cars. Lovely Lancashire scenery on a good day.
Risk assessment: Several narrow squeeze stiles and some stone wall stiles will need care. Slippery and muddy after rain.
