Tolkein Trail Walks

Tolkien was renowned for his love of nature and it is thought that it was this particular area of the Lancashire countryside that inspired his writing.

There are many interesting walks to enjoy for friends, families and children. Bring the correct footwear ... there's road, rocks, soil, steps and streams ... and rain sometimes!

PLEASE DO...

  • Close farm gates
  • Keep dogs on a lead
  • Don't drop litter
  • Stay on paths
  • Take care on roads
Thank you!
