Walk of the Month: High Bentham Circular

We like to help you explore the area whilst you’re staying with us. For those of you that can get out on foot, we hope our monthly walks help give you a little inspiration whether you visit us weekly, monthly or just once a year.

For the month of October, a walk that’s right on our doorstep, the High Bentham Circular! This walk takes in lovely scenery along the valley of the River Wenning, and provides views south to the Forest of Bowland fells, and the hills of the Yorkshire Dales to the North. This is based on sections of the Bentham Heritage Trail.

Where to wander this month: High Bentham Circular 

The details: 

Distance:  5 miles ( 8.04km) circular

Approx. Time: 3 hours
