Walk description
To start the walk we climb out of Dungworth up Tom Hill, before dropping steeply down to Ughill Brook. Tracks and lanes lead us through woodland until we reach Rod Moor where we break for lunch. From here we descend back to Dungworth mainly through farmland.
It is advised that waterproof trousers or gaiters are brought for at least one section where long grass and vegetation overhang the path. If it is a wet day this will quickly soak your legs.
This walk takes us on paths through woodland, fields and moorland. There are also sections on quiet country lanes.
