Leave this field at up hill gate as you can't get out at the Valley end. Follow road and go along a track to Soddam mill . Disregard the sign as its no longer lived in and used . In Feb the area around the mill is swathed in snowdrops. Follow over the bridge and climb the field to return to the original road past holiday cottage.

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.
