The walk starts from Wood Lane and follows the route of the disused Chevet Railway Branch Line for a short distance, then through Bushcliff Wood and the lakeside track to the car park at Newmillerdam Country Park, goes along the dam wall and then heads along the track at the north east side of the lake. The route crosses Bushcliff Beck and climbs through Bushcliff Wood before entering Seckar Wood (SSSI). The route continues to Shroggs Hill Platation before turning north, re-entering Seckar Wood before crossing open fields to rejoin the disused railway line and returns to Wood Lane.

Total ascent no more than 450ft over the whole distance. A relatively easy walk but there could be some muddy areas in Seckar Wood after rain.

CALCULATE CALORIES

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
