Start at the Candle Workshops.

1. Turn left out of the car park, fork right immediately and go straight over the staggered crossroads, signed "No-through Road."
2. Carry on up the hill where you join the Sandstone Trail. Turn right over the stile and follow the path along the field edge and the side of the woodland.
3. Turn left and immediately right onto a track opposite the lodge, waymarked to Bulkeley Hill. Carry on along the Sandstone Trail, turning left up some steps and around the edge of the hill where there are tremendous views through the trees.
4. The path leaves the wood via a kissing gate and is waymarked Raw Head & Larkton Hill. Bear right across the field, cross Coppermine Lane and follow the track straight ahead. Go straight on down and bear left through a kissing gate. Follow the path to the trig point (white block), enjoying the views along the way.
5. Carry on past the view point and continue down some sandstone steps. Turn right down quite a steep path and right again onto a forestry track.
6. At the end of the track turn left down the hill and first right up a sandy track. Turn left over a stile just before the corner and cross the field towards the edge of Bodnick Wood. Go through the wood round the hill and cross one stile, and another next to it, bearing right across the field. Cross another stile and follow the path along the edge of the field.
7. Turn right up the road, and right up the lane past the church. Follow the road around to the left and turn right up the hill back to the Candle Workshops.
