Report

Urban walks at each end, but the middle does go through some lovely countryside. Due to the terrain, it's foot only as it passes through fields and a variety of gates.

Report

An awful lot of urban walking at the start and end, but that was expected. In between it was typical Wirral walking, old footpaths and roads, the road section between Thornton Hough and Raby can be detoured by an obvious footpath at the far side of the playing field (not on OS).

Report

The road junctions can be quite difficult especially if one is on the slow side because of any impediment. Quite a lot of road / urban walking which makes it less interesting.

Philippa

19 Sep 2021 Summer
Report

There is quite a lot of pavement walking through the towns which is accessible though care has to be taken crossing some roads. The paths between the towns tend to be narrow and rough and some paths can be muddy and have nettles and brambles encroaching during summer and autumn.
