Overview

This Sunday ramble starts from the NT Alfred Tower car park (no ticket machine) and we walk down through the woods on the Macmillan Way. We then walk through livestock grassland farms, eventually returning to the Tower via the Leland Way. The terrain can be rough and the grass long and wet being conserved for silage making. There are many stiles and bridges, not all in a good condition which will mean the walk is not at a fast pace but could be quite tiring. Map: EX143. 

Everyone is welcome. If you would like to join this walk, please notify the walk leader (Jennifer D 07970113467) or email swrsundaywalks@gmail.com.

If you would like to car share, please let the walk leader know when you book and we will hopefully be able to facilitate this.

There will be two stops during the day for coffee and lunch (please bring a picnic)

Assistance dogs only.
