Walk description
This walk of 6.5 miles follows paved roads, wide farm tracks, footpaths and provides lovely views of Wharncliffe Crags, the Ewden Valley and Green Moor. There is one short uphill section shortly after the start, but otherwise it follows the contour line around the hillside to Bolsterstone village and along to Hungerhill. The route continues gently up to the Trig Point on Whitwell Moor for views over Rhododendron Valley. We then retrace our steps back to Bolsterstone, for anyone who wants pub refreshments at the Castle Inn. It is then a 20 minute downhill walk, back to our cars.
There are 6 stiles and 6 gates on this walk.
