To the bluebell woods – an easy route of 9k and about 2 hours

This route starts off the same as the walk to Gilling West
It diverges from this, with a right turn up the hill, rather than a left turn to descend to Crabtree House farm.
Go up the hill, across a cattle grid and turn east, keeping a low stone wall to your left. There is a gate into the bluebell wood (Mid May is the best time), but no similar gate to exit, so it is best if you stay out of the wood and look into it over the top of the low wall.

Turn east just after this hollow tree

Bluebell wood is on the right of the wall. This view is looking down the hill
