20-22nd June 2025 at Lowstern. For this year’s Long Walk we have planned a crossing of our backyard, the wild and remote moorlands Southwest of our Yorkshire hut. It is not an area of spectacular hills but you will traverse country you probably haven’t visited before. The route sticks to the high ground as much as possible although it does drop into the Trough of Bowland halfway, where it is hoped to establish a feeding point. A short deviation from the route near Wolfhole Crag would take you to the centre of Great Britain where, according to the Ordnance Survey you could balance the country on a pin. So if you jump up and down you could tilt all of us left or right as you political whim suggests.

The full route will be a tough 30 miles but as long as we get a few helpers, shorter options will be available. Ged Campion is hoping to be able to cater the meet and is looking forward to welcoming a good number of walkers and supporters.

The route map HERE is not the definitive one; it will be refined and finalised very shortly and a GPX track will be made available. You can zoom in on the map to see the detail.
