몰랑 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

If walking the route I've suggested I would wear good waterproof boots and if your unsteady on your feet take poles to help balance great walk to suit all abilities

great place to stop for a coffee or food lots of sitting and views

After the track along Hawkridge Ridge, the route starts to descent over the bedrock through a broadleaf woodland. This turns into a dirt single track, and ends up on the valley floor, following the stream to Castle Bridge, and the climb up out of the valley. I was riding my rigid steel 29er, so picking my way, but it would be a flyer with suspension.

welcome refreshment stop

After a walk, it is worth stopping off at this inn. Whether it is a cream tea or something savoury.

It's really hard to climb this on my bike with soft tyres, so it was a push after the first few metres and having run out of gears. Not so bad on a svelte bike with low gears and a fitter-than-me rider!

Hard work on a rigid 29er, muddy in parts, with a deceptively deep and rocky ford. Note to self:The footbridge is there for a reason, you last did this sort of thing 35 years ago 🤔. It's a steep and twisty climb out after the bridge, up to the road.
