Sat 15th October - Heughscar Hill from Askham

Please note this walk will run on a Saturday as opposed to a Sunday and will involve a ferry fare (£6.60).

Description: A circular low level walk from Askham taking in Howtown, Pooley Bridge and Heughscar Hill. 

This is walk in memory of Anne Keys who passed away last year. We will be visiting Heughscar Hill, where Anne visited frequently, in one of the most scenic spots in the Lake Destrict and a place she loved.

Everyone is welcome even if you didn't know Anne. We will walk from Askham to Howtown, 4.8 miles and take a scenic 1/2 hour boat trip to Pooley Bridge. We can stop here for some lunch before climbing out of Pooley Bridge onto Heughscar Hill where we will spend some time before heading back down to Askham.

Start Point: Askham Village Hall car park, NY513 237.

Start Time: Meet 9.15 for a 9.30 start to allow plenty of time to catch the 12.00 ferry from Howtown to Pooley Bridge (£6.60).

Length: 8 miles

Leader: 07773 202845
