Marles Wood (6 miles)


Every walk around Hurst Green has its own charm ... and Marles Wood is a favourite for many people! Start at the front door of the Shireburn Arms (near the road) and walk LEFT for 20 yards to Lambing Clough Lane. Follow this lane down to the new suspension bridge with stunning views as you 'float' over the River Ribble. Cross the bridge and turn left to walk the full 5.8 mile loop ... or if you prefer a shorter walk, turn right and follow the river into the woods and come back the same way when you reach Marles Wood Car Park.
