Hubbard's Hills, Louth, Lincolnshire.


Time to swop the couch for some sensible footwear and take a power walk around Hubbard's Hills Louth. All before Tea!

For the past couple of week's we have been visiting Hubbard's Hills before tea to take a brisk walk. 

Its the perfect place to stretch those leg muscles without doing too much, on those
sunny spring evenings that are ahead.

Free Car Park at the rear end.

Free parking (although limited) is what we normally do at the rear of Hubbard's Hills.

However the main car park although there is a charge has more capacity, and easy access for public toilets & cafe facility. 

There is plenty of benches along the main routes for you to take a breather, or to just sit and listen to the evening bird song.


The long way up!



Going through the gate from the rear car park, to your right is the stair way. 

This route although the most tiring on the legs, will burn a few more calories. Which is why we walk this way around. 

Having arrived at the top of Hubbard's Hills turn left off the steps and your begin your walk following the pathway that runs along the edge of Louth Golf Course to your right. FOUR!


Pathway along the side of Louth Golf Course.

Depending on your fitness level you may be puffing and panting by now! but carry on a short distance and a wooden bench will appear to your right hand side. 

There is normally (dependant on time of day & weather) several golfers making their way around the Golf course.

The elevation at the highest point is around
166' and the total distance 1.32 miles to the start point.  We took around 30 mins burning 131 calories.
