The Walk
Join Stephen Turner and Dan Barcroft on a 10 mile walk from the sleepy seaside town of Grange Over Sands in South Cumbria
Highlights of the walk will be:
• Starting from the railway station then walking up through the woodlands on a steep ascent onto the hills above Grange,
• Walking on the hills to Hampsfield Hospice – a folly and great vantage point for views across Morecambe Bay and the South Cumbrian fells,
• Meander along the ridge then through Allithwaite,
• Pick up the path to Humphrey Head a peninsula jutting out into Morecambe Bay,
• Make our way back along the marshes to Kents Bank,
• Walk along the promenade back to Grange,
• Then have a post walk tea/coffee at one of the genteel cafes in the centre of town

bring waterproofs and sturdy boots - consider gaitors as there is a couple of muddy sections
