About the event
CURRENTLY REVISING THE ROUTE.
Terrain around Round Loaf is currently excessively boggy and so I am planning to take us over Redmond's Edge instead. This will mean a longer walk, stretching the walk to almost nineteen kilometres, or eleven miles.
This route will take us back in time over thousands of years to explore a landscape that our ancestors used for many different purposes.
We will traverse disused mine workings with cascading waterfalls, a natural peat bog that provides a delicate habitat for many birds and plants and, eventually, a beautiful stretch of water surrounded by tranquil woodland.
I have designed this walk to be informative and fun, discussing various sites of industrial heritage, historical importance and natural beauty as we pass them.
Some of the places of interest featured in this walk include:
