Walk description
From the start we walk along the Monsal trail and through the first tunnel before turning up to Monsal Head. We can sit and have a coffee / lunch, there are toilets here also.
After lunch we head back over the fields towards Ashford before turning back to the Monsal Trail and back to the start point.
This walk is pretty mud free, on doing the recce we saw at least fifty Waxwings on our return to Hassop Station, fingers crossed we see some.
