Lancaster Barn B&B

Wyre Way (Garstang to Abbeystead)

Follows the River Wyre through gentle Lancashire countryside with mostly flat terrain alongside the river, though a few moderate inclines appear closer to Abbeystead. Suitable for older children but not buggies due to stile crossings and occasional muddy sections. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock. Worth doing for peaceful riverside walking, birdwatching opportunities, and classic rural views transitioning from pastoral farmland to the edge of the Forest of Bowland.

Wyre Way (Tarnbrook Loop)

Loops through remote Bowland moorland and farmland with steady climbs over rugged terrain—expect muddy, uneven paths and exposed sections. Not suitable for buggies or very young children due to challenging ground and navigation needed. Dogs welcome but keep on leads near livestock. Rewards with sweeping fells views and true wilderness feel rarely found in Lancashire, perfect for experienced walkers seeking solitude.

Wyre Way (Shard Bridge to Garstang)

Follows the River Wyre through flat, open farmland and peaceful riverbank paths between Shard Bridge and Garstang. Entirely suitable for families with buggies on firm tracks, though some sections can be muddy after rain. Dogs welcome and will love the water access. Excellent for birdwatching along the estuary stretches, with big skies and uninterrupted rural views making this an easy, relaxing Lancashire walk.
