Making Trax
At the beginning of August 2007 I picked up a leaflet in the Rotherham
Visitor Centre for Making Trax Walk 1 - Swinton Rotherham Roman Ridge. Now I may be making
assumptions here but anything labeled 1 is likely to have at least a 2 in the pipeline. On the
basis of this I have begun a new page for these walks.
Making Trax Walk 1 - Swinton Rotherham Roman Ridge
This is a 4½ mile walk along part of the remains of the Roman Ridge in Swinton. We
did this walk on Sunday 5 August 2007 and very pleasant it was too although it was very,
very warm and I'd not taken any liquids. It is mostly off road, but on metalled
tracks (though these can still be very muddy in places in wet weather) with only one or
two gradients. It is not possible for wheelchair users because of the bike gates to stop
the motorcycles but everyone else should manage it.
