Kirby Knowle · 1 checked & stamped
Boots on. These are the Kirby Knowle walks worth the drive, with lead rules and livestock warnings marked.
Four and a half miles from Kirby Knowle up through the wooded escarpment towards Cowesby and back down a rugged descending trail, about two and a quarter hours with 198 metres of climb. There is roadside parking only, the approach lanes are single track, and there is no bus, so this is a car walk. Seventy per cent of the route is genuine path with shade and running water in the woods, but the upper section is open access land with a seasonal lead requirement and there are sheep on the moor edge throughout the year.
