Practical notes

  • Steep at some points
  • A good casual walk

Before you go

  • Check the latest weather before you set off.
  • Wear suitable walking shoes or boots for the terrain.
  • Carry enough water, especially on longer or exposed routes.
  • Take a charged phone and a backup way to navigate.
  • Pack a small first aid kit for basic cuts, blisters, or minor issues.
  • Check daylight, parking, access, and any local restrictions before walking.
  • Tell someone your route if you are heading somewhere remote or unfamiliar.

My experience

I missed a turn at the start of trail then managed to get on track after climbing a slope.
