Freshwalks – Hilbre Island

Welcome to Freshwalks and the third Women in Property netwalking collaboration event of 2022. After previous walks in Cheshire and Lancashire, our next route takes us to the Wirral and the magical Hilbre Island.

Situated at the mouth of the Dee Estuary, the Hilbre Islands are one of the finest locations for walking in the region and spotting rare and endangered wildlife. The islands are an archipelago and classed as one of just 43 unbridged tidal islands in the UK that can be reached on foot from the mainland.

Our route sees us initially head along the coast to Red Rocks before walking two miles across the Dee Estuary to discover this archipelago, consisting of three islands, straddling the England and Wales border. We’ll head from Little Eye past Middle Eye to Hilbre Island itself where we’ll take a picnic lunch* (provided). After a quick rest and refreshments, we’ll begin our trek back to our starting point and a more direct angle towards West Kirby. It’s a fabulous route and a real hidden gem in the North West of England.

Total distance: approx. 10km GRADE: EASY (FLAT)

We intend to start the walk from the beach at the bottom of Dee Lane slipway at 11:00am

Registration Deadline: Friday 17 June 2022
