We'll be searching for pixies* in the forest whilst we walk between several of the area's ponds - e.g. Mallards Pike & Speech House Lake. Plenty of trees to hug for those so inclined. No stiles; mainly forestry tracks so certified "Safe for Shorts"; no great inclines to contend with. *no guarantee of sightings but please report any to the walk leader who will arrange appropriate action. Route is graded as moderate with 1800 feet of ascent

General Notes
Route may vary due to forestry operations. Forestry England limit the number in a walking group to 25, therefore it's essential to let me know via email if you intend to come so that I can monitor numbers
