Join me on a 4 mile walk around Turton Tower, Chapletown and Jumbles Reservoir. A varied walk, on good paths, covering moorland, village and woodland walking. Crossing the railway line, we skirt Turton Moors before descending to Chapeltown via field paths, to view its historic buildings. From here we descend to Jumbles reservoir for an easy walk around the water before returning to Turton Tower. A lovely walk with lots of varied history and great scenery, weather permitting, 425 ft of ascent ( not all at once!) Please Note the Tower is not open for visitors on Tuesdays. But the cafe is!! but bring drink and snack too.

Easy paced, small group, social walk and talk for a couple of hours along the beach from the Beachcomber cafe. We will head South towards the pier and perhaps beyond and into the nature reserve, depending on pace on the day we will see how far we get before turning back to return to the Beachcomber for a cuppa for anyone who wishes to.

Start the walk from the café near to Go Ape and make our way to Rivington Barn, then the paths through the gardens to the pike and the story of the headless horseman of Rivington Pike. If the café is open near to the pike stop for a brew, then make our way back down, back to the Barn and then to the starting point. This will be any easy paced walk.
