The path crosses the grouse moors (look for the shooting hut) before climbing to Round Hill. Round Hill is nothing special despite being the highest point in the area. Double back south east and enjoy the views on the 1 mile wide grassy ridge to Beamsley Beacon. The Beacon is one of the many cross country beacons primed for lighting during the Spanish Armada or the potential invasion of Napoleon. The return from the beacon is via some quiet country roads and pretty hamlets.
