⚑Departure from Claughton (Lancashire)

Ths Forest of Bowland offers some of the finest walking in Lancashire. However some of the moorland sections can be quite boggy after rain. A good sense of direction is required certainly during the first section of this walk. Refreshments are not available during this walk so make sure you take food and water.

Walking Fair Oak and Long Knots

Association or club
↔6.70 km ↗+130 m ↘-131 m ◔2h 15 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from Bowland Forest Low (Lancashire)

A pleasant stroll with superb views down the Hodder valley and a gentle pastoral return via a series of farms. One steep climb and descent above the stepping stones. Field paths may be muddy after rain and the stepping stones may be impassable when the river is in spate.

Walking A Hodder Trod

Association or club
↔9.23 km ↗+135 m ↘-142 m ◔3h 00 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Bowland Forest Low (Lancashire)

A scenic walk along both sides of the Hodder valley; the river is crossed via two sets of stepping stones. Those at Stakes at the southern end are rather uneven and at the time of writing in 2015 one was dislodged, necessitating a nimble hop of about a yard; both sets may be impassable when the river is high (diversions are available). Field paths may be muddy.

Walking Birkett Fell

Association or club
↔9.61 km ↗+240 m ↘-231 m ◔3h 25 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Bowland Forest Low (Lancashire)

A somewhat wilder walk over Birkett Fell, rewarded with wide views over the Hodder valley and encounters with some intriguing limestone features. There are two moderate climbs; the moorland can be bleak in poor weather and paths may be indistinct and boggy in places.
