Details
| Description: | Terrain Notes: Mainly open runnable woodland with complex old mining contour detail. Some slopes can be slippery in wet conditions so care may be needed when going downhill in such areas as also in the vicinity of ruins where the ground may be uneven. Some paths are indistinct so take care when using to navigate especially if covered in fallen leaves. Elsewhere the forest is mainly runnable deciduous with minimal patches of low undergrowth which is mostly avoidable. There are also a few hides across the area which are not mapped. The area is popular with dog walkers and cyclists so please take care if you encounter any. |
