This section of the trail connects the Ashgill Force area with Crosgill Farm, following at all time the river of the same name. Along the way, you can immerse yourself in the surrounding nature.

Hiking

This is a nice trail that follows the river from Ashgill Waterfall down to Garrigill along the South Tyne Trail. There are nice pools and small cascades along the way to stop off and have a paddle if you wish. Overall, a nice scenic walk.
