Created after WWII by 27 members of the women’s land army timber corps known as the Lumber Jills this isolated riverside walk stunning

Step 1: Start at the small car park and picnic area

Step 2: Follow the yellow way markers up the path

Step 3: It is a gradual climb and not strenuous

Step 4: The views say the top will be best in winter as the foliage blocks a bit

Step 5: The path circles at the top and heads back down

Step 6: The trees are mostly native Rowan, oak and birch and not coniferous which is unusual here

Very much the middle of nowhere, but a really nice walk particularly in winter when it’s quiet and too windy to head to the coast
