Walk Name Jack O Lantern Halloween Walk
Description Plenty of ascents and descents on this walk around Loxley, Worrall and Oughtibridge.

If you wish wear your witch’s hat, spooky outfit or pumpkin deely boppers to get into the Halloween spirit.

We start with a steady uphill walk to Worrall before heading down to Beely wood and up towards the gothic buildings of the old Middlewood Hospital. More woodlands at Loxley as we pass the trig point before a downhill stretch to the Jack O Lantern Spectacular in Storrs wood where we may follow the pumpkin trail and view woodland sculptures. We may stop for a hot drink (bring some change). Then it’s a short walk 20-minute walk back to the start.
Varied terrain, woodland paths and fields with couple of decent climbs. If there has been recent rain consider bringing your gaiters

Nags Head for drinks (and food? see info) at the end of the walk.
