The walks his group undertakes make good use of not being constricted to a circular route. With a suitable dropping off and pickup point John plans many fine walks along some of the less frequented footpaths of Northern England.

At first glance the shortness of the walk may give you the impression that today's venture will be an easy one. So be warned there's ascent and lot's of it, over 3000ft if you do the full route. There's also a nice steep descent just to round off a perfect day! Oh and don't forget the scramble up Jack's Rake if you would like a more adventurous route up to Harrison Stickle.
