Walk Description:

An Intermediate / Gear 2 walk of approximately 1.25/1.5 hours. Walking at a faster pace and a distance of approximately 4 miles. The gradient is gentle, but the aim is to maintain a good pace so the technique must be established. There are a couple of alternative routes according to the ground conditions but walkers should be prepared to walk along country roads and farm tracks with the option of a long gentle incline for a slightly further route.

Gear 1 - A nice, easy and natural pace that you can do for extended periods with recovery periods where appropriate. Short hills might be introduced. 

Gear 2 - A faster pace gained through technique. There will be less recovery time.  

Remember to bring your own water bottle, weather suitable clothing for the weather on the day. 

Location Notes:

There is no official car parking. Parking is on the roadside and therefore there is no charge. There are no WC facilities.
