Wortley round walk

Places remaining: 26
Route Description
A relatively easy but beautiful walk from Cote Green Equestrian centre car park, Finkle Street Lane, S35 7DH (home to the Wagyu burger bar and farm shop).
Meet at 10.15am for a 10.30am start.
A steady incline takes us up to Wortley village and from there we walk on through to Crane Moor Nook, on to Thurgoland where we will have a snack break at the Sunflower Sanctuary. From there we head across and down to Huthwaite and through woodland and fields back to the car park.
Care needs to be taken as we cross the A629 at both Wortley and Thurgoland. The walk is, in the main, on well worn paths.
Other Information
Dogs are welcome to join us, adhering to the country side code.
For anyone unfamiliar with ‘Sunflower Sanctuary’, it is a small animal rescue shelter owned and managed by a local man in memory of his late wife. He relies heavily on donations (financial and materials) and is always appreciative of public support so, if you could make room in your rucksack for a few carrots, apples or any other food stuffs that goats, sheep and donkeys could munch on, it will be well received.
