Bowland in September

Undeterred by Yellow Weather Warnings, 6 Ramblers set off from the lovely village of Bowland by Bowland for a 10 mile circular walk. The weather was fine and dry when we set off but we were realistic that this might not last!

After the first leg to the village of Sawley, we had a quick water stop and a photo op alongside the River Ribble. A couple of miles further on we stopped for lunch in a very odd location which comprised a Stone Circle and Arthurian sword in the stone!<

A heavy downpour caught us out, so shelter under some trees proved a good idea except for the multitude of very liquid cow pats! Moving on we crossed a small plateau before dropping down to the river along a steep and partially stepped path.

The final stretch took us through the village Bolton in Bowland and back to Bowland car park for a quick change before the short drive to Sawley and a welcome drink in the Spread Eagle pub.
