⚑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 Dunsop Bridge and Totridge Fell

Association or club
↔15.78 km ↗+461 m ↘-470 m ◔5h 50 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Bowland Forest Low (Lancashire)

Without the optional ascent of Totridge this is a fairly long but mostly undemanding walk, apart from a moderate climb to the shoulder of Mellor Knoll. The fellside climb to Totridge is steep and the trig point is on high peat moorland (avoid in poor visibility), but the reward for the effort on a clear day is an exceptional view that includes Pendle Hill and the tops of the Yorkshire Three Peaks. The stepping stones may become impassable after heavy rain.

↔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.
