Abney Grange Walks & Route Maps

This first route option is a challenging walk that explores the steep-sided countryside around Abney Grange.

A sharp descent first leads you down into the valley near Bretton Brook before climbing back onto higher ground around Abney Low and then continuing across the exposed ridge of Bleak Knoll.

From here the walk opens out across Abney Moor, where rough pasture and open moorland create wide views across the surrounding hills.

This longer and even more demanding hike explores more of the rugged countryside around Abney Grange.

This route also starts with a very steep descent into the valley with uneven ground along the way.

Bretton Brook and the wooded sides of Bretton Clough gives the landscape a different feel as you follow the valley until you reach the river crossing of Stoke Ford.

The route then climbs back onto higher ground near Abney Low and Abney Clough.

This adventurous walk with steep sections is challenging and only suitable for more experienced walkers.
