Description

Fabulous views and a stunning landscape with amazing rock formations make this walk a classic. The going is pretty easy with grassy paths and tracks through heather. The paths are generally easy to follow except on the tops where you need to be a confident navigator (especially in mist). There a couple of climbs for good cardio-vascular exercise.
