During the Second World War, English author J.R.R. Tolkien spent a lot of time at a house in the grounds of Stonyhurst College whilst writing The Lord of the Rings.
​
The book, a sequel to The Hobbit, is one of the best selling books of all time, with over 150 million copies sold.
​
This 7 mile (11km) walk around The Ribble Valley in Lancashire takes approximately 3.5 hours. The route is relatively flat and easy, with no significant hills, and takes us past the impressive Stonyhurst College, through woodlands and along the River Ribble.
​
We walk at a slow / steady pace for this hike, only a low / moderate level of fitness is required.
​
The event starts and ends outside the Shireburn Arms pub in Hurst Green, BB7 9QJ, where we also pop in for a chat and drink at the end of the walk.

Lud's Church has a 'wow factor'. It is a gorge or chasm in the surrounding rock and is approximately 20m deep and 100m long. It has steep, moss-covered sides, giving it a mysterious or mystical feel. It seems a little other-worldly; like you've stepped into a Lord of the Rings landscape.

We continue our hike up onto The Roaches - a wide ridge (a bit like Mam Tor if you've been on that hike with us) with views of the countryside below.
​
The highest point on this route is 505m. The route we will follow is 10 miles (16km) and will take around 6 hours. The ridge is a nice wide path, making it suitable for those with a fear of heights. We walk at a steady pace for this hike, but you should have a moderate to good level of fitness to allow you to complete the walk. The event starts and ends at the car park in Gradback, SK17 0SU (or the farmer's nearby overflow car park if that's full). We'll drive 5 minutes up the road to the New Inn Pub for a social chat and drink (non-alcoholic is fine) afterwards.
