The halfway point on this walk is indeed the Top of Lincolnshire, at 168 meters above ordnance datum, not the biggest, but there's no need to be a size queen, as we walk Nettleton Top we will still be treated to great views.

Caistor stands in a fold in the western scarp of the chalk ridge and is flanked by typical rounded shoulders and the tops of the Wolds, incised by steep-sided, winding valleys and bournes. This walk leaves the old Roman town to explore one of these great gashes in the hills before rising to one of the best viewpoints in Lincolnshire at Nettleton Top; an immense panoramic sweep across the heart of England and north towards the distant Yorkshire Wolds.

 

Waitlist: If this event is fully booked and you want to attend, just add yourself to the waitlist, because places inevitably become available closer to the date.
