7½ miles (12km) with no climbing

Meet at Guys Thatched Hamlet, Bilsborrow (Sat Nav: PR3 0RS), ready for the usual start time of 10.30am.

Park near to the cricket pitches (away from the buildings).

This walk is on the canal towpath and farm fields, but it can be muddy!


C Walk - Crook of Lune with Roy Smith
5½ miles (8.9km) with Minimal Ascent

Meet at the car park at the Crook of Lune, Low Road, Halton (Sat Nav: LA2 9HU), ready for the usual start time of 10.30am.

Starting our walk from the car park we follow the disused railway line towards Caton. Beyond Ellers Farm we leave the disused line and follow farm track and field track along the side of the River Lune until we get to the Waterworks bridge, which we cross to make our way through woodland, towards Halton Green. We now follow again the River Lune, passing the hydroelectricity pumping station, until we reach Halton. At Halton we cross back over the River Lune and follow the track of the disused railway, the Lune Valley Ramble, back to our starting point.
