Join Stephen on an 11 mile walk in the Ribble Valley in a scenic part of Lancashire to the east of Preston.


Highlights of the walk will be:
• Setting off Ribchester - which was a roman fort and crossing
• Passing some historical buildings and farms
• Venturing through wooded valleys and fields
• Walking through the grounds of Stonyhurst College in the village of Hurst Green , with its links to JRR Tolkien and the supposed basis for Middle Earth in the Lord of the Rings
• picking up the Ribble Way and following the River Ribble back to Ribchester
• returning to Ribchester for a well earned post walk drink at one of the pubs or cafes in Ribchester
